In light of the recent posts concerning incomplete projects I thought I would share a photographic list of finished projects from this year, in order of completion:
A slip cover for Robin's archos using the leftover yarn from his Yule socks. Made it up sans pattern.
An indecisive ribbed scarf with vertical and horizontal stripes. mine. I was asked to share this technique last year so wrote up a tutorial.
My first shawl of the year. My own design to use some dreamy mocha-pink handspun yarn I bought locally (before I started spinning!) Bought the complimentary pink silk-blend to go with it.
A Carcassone hat for a friend's birthday. My design.
A Decepticon slouchy hat. Chart is not mine, but the colouring is. And I hand-dyed the yarn for the gradient effect. This was a special request from Candace.
Some socks for mom using a simple slipped stitch pattern to break up the variegated yarn.
A crocheted Festival shawl as a surprise for a friend who had surprised me with this yarn as a gift. This was my first beaded shawl. I also knit myself a lacy cardigan with the yarn last year.
Abi's pink and blue scarf using yarn she dyed and plain white. Knit with double garter.
A Fibonacci Sequence toque for dad.
An Ethereal shawl for a friend.
Another crochet shawl using up yarn from my stash. I kept this one, although I'd assumed I would gift it.
Rhombus socks for mom in a Raven-way yarn from Blue Moon Fibrearts.
A Traveling woman shawl for a friend with yarn that Abi dyed.
A strip for a collaborative gift blanket using yarn that Abi and Isaac dyed.
A spring shawl (Summer Flies) for Abi using up more yarns that Abi dyed - and a little of my handspun yarn too! I haven't bothered to block it, but I can to make it grow with her.
A Hatchling Dragon shawl for my sister. My design and the yarn had been gifted to me by another friend who doesn't like bamboo yarns - which she discovered after buying some lovely bamboo.
My Battle-Weary Dragon shawl. My baby. My design. Many beads.
A Windermere/Tigers Eye stole for mom. The never-ending thing. ( Not as never-ending as my Evenstar. Or the afghan for Veronica we shall not speak of.)
A quick Lotus hat for me from my stash.
My green Sweet Embrace stole. Nupp-ilicious and I adore this yarn from Waterloo Wools. Same as the Battle-Weary. There's another skein in my stash...
A bucket hat for me using old cotton I've had since I started knitting again.
A quick crocheted Geoui shawl using up stash yarn that pooled terribly when knit. I think the pooling works in the crochet design. This one was gifted to a friend.
My rainbow-licious Antonia shawl. I could not resist when I saw this single skein of rainbow lace yarn.... Then I cursed myself for buying a yarn nearly impossible to match to a pattern. This worked. I love it. mine!
An Indigenous shawl using up the yarn I bought many years ago while in Saskatoon with mom for a conference.
A sweater for Abi in the pink (of course) yarn she chose from a local yarn store closing sale. A simple raglan I made up as I went with a diamond lace motif.
Another strip for another collaborative piece.
The mystery knit along shawl from June.
The Undercover blanket Abi and I made
An Echo Flowers shawl in my favourite yarn - Waterloo Wools Montague. (Same as Green Embrace and Battle-Weary Dragon above - different colours of course).
The End - for this moment less than half-way through the year...
