I've been busy crafting up a storm over here. Trying to achieve a good balance of knitting for myself and knitting for others. I have a long list of Christmas presents I'm hoping to knit in time! With a long "To Knit" list in front of me I decided I should take a step back and reflect on everything I was able to accomplish this past month. So let's take a look!
Cabled Boot Cuffs
My first completed project in November! A new design for a pair of cabled boot cuffs. (This pattern is currently in testing mode are not available for purchase).
Into Darkness Sweater
Next I test knit this beautiful gradient sweater pattern for Boadicea Binnerts aka Boknits. I love the way it turned out! I hope to get better, modeled pictures of it soon.
Cable No Cable Cowl
Then I was off on another test knit adventure! Another test for Boknits. I really love her designs so I test for her as often as I can. Very happy with the way my cowl turned out.
Diminishing Bubbles Hat
When Bo announced she had a hat pattern to match the cowl I knew I had to test that as well! Unfortunately I ran out of the brown yarn and had to finish the top part of the hat in cream. I'm not thrilled with the end result. I wish I had just picked a different yarn. Oh well!
Chevzam!
My last completed project of November! I am in LOVE with this one. Everything came together perfectly. The pattern, the colors, the yarn itself - everything.
I was able to accomplish a lot in November! Hurray :) I also have some unfinished projects from this month as well.
Tiptoe Slippers
My first attempt at anything sock-like in construction. Which to me means something with a heel! It wasn't as scary as I was thinking it would be. I'm also working them two at a time with one inside of the other. An all around adventure :)
Zam Hat
This is the matching hat to the Chevzam cowl. I loved the cowl so much that I decided to go ahead and make the hat as well. Now I'll have a beautiful matching set! Assuming I don't run out of yarn at the top like I did on my last hat :/
And there they are! All my finished and in progress crafts from November. Well most of them. I have a few other works in progress but they are top secret gift knits. So I will wait to share those after they've been gifted.
What were you all working on in November?
