Monogamous I am NOT

Well, I have never, ever claimed to be a monogamous crafter. I have issues with this, but I doubt they have the appropriate psychiatric facilities for this kind of problem. So I promised I would show all my WIPs, including the ones that were rediscovered while cleaning up the crafty stuff. I will admit that a couple were frogged and will not be shown.

You have been warned, don't say you haven't . . . this isn't a list for the faint of heart. Here we go . . .

WEAVING

First up is Rhoni's scarf. As you can see by the beam below the weaving, I have gotten some work done on it. It's been a little slow because the loom and myself are really still becoming acquainted and it seems to be resisting the relationship some.



SPINNING
This is the yarn I am spinning for my eventual gloves. They have been "in the works" for some time now. I have blogged about this yarn before. The theme is the colors of fallen leaves in the fall.


This yarn is the yarn I intend to ply with the above yarn for my gloves. Both are spun very finely.


This is some lovely yarn that I started spinning but took it off the spindle to spin the natural roving above. This was carded by hand, since I don't have any tools yet to do any of that. I love it and will return to it once I am done with the natural color.



KNITTING
Here we have the Catherine Bear I am working on. I have the body, one side of the head, and a third of the other side of the head done.



My orange and brown top I started on I believe around January of last year. I put it down in late spring as it wasn't done in time to wear and was getting warmer and then kind of just forgot about it. I really didn't remember being so far along already. I have to admit, I can't wait to finish it, it feels so soft and snuggly.



My gloves that I started knitting this holiday season. My hands are always cold it seems, as you can tell, I haven't made it very far yet. I love the colors of this yarn though.



A charity hat.

Another one of Rhoni's headbands.



Ah, well. This is sort of an indulgence. This is Knitty's Via Diagonale. I always wanted to knit a bag, so here she is. I know, it's quite bright and believe me, the colors are just as bright or maybe even a little brighter in real life.



This is my first toe-up sock. The stitch pattern is from one of the Sensational Knitted Socks books. You'll notice that the toe looks very unique. I worked hard until I made that short row toe pretty much match the shape of my toes. It was annoying and tedious, all that frogging and re-knitting, but I definitely think it was all worth it in the end.



My cowl. Ah, this was started early this fall I think . . . or somewhere around there. It was one of the items pushed aside for holiday knitting. I am looking forward to finishing it, preferably in time to still wear it this winter. You can see my love for moss stitch. :)



See, only 13!
