In December, there were games, and I made things for them:<\/p>\n

Top to bottom, left to right: The sweater-hoodie I promised Mr. Boyfriend last Christmas; another Jackson scarf, this time for Dad, in neutral man-colors of Swan’s Island Fingering Weight; Irish rose brooches for Christmas gifting from some sport silk remnants I had laying around; a headband\/earwarmer thing out of some delightful smooshy glittery yarn (more gifts); September socks ripped and reknit for the Banana’s smaller-than-mine feets; a crocheted and embellished wreath for the front door (whose ribbon fell off this morning as I was leaving); and a little stuffed monster (not technically a game submission, but finished in December and soon to be mailed off to the outreach project for which it was created).<\/p>\n

I am, of course, most proud of the hoodie. I used it as my three-month challenge this go, and was thrilled to finish it in time for the end of tourney, if not Christmas proper. It turned out so well that I think I’m actually going to draft a pattern for it\u2014and hopefully submit it for publication at one of my favorite webzines this year! A pattern will also be forthcoming for the earwarmer, but that will be free and posted up with the yoga bag pattern on my patterns page.<\/p>\n

All sorts of other things I’d like to talk about, but I think they should wait for their own post. I have GOALS for 2013, people. KNITTING-RELATED GOALS. Stick around, it’s going to be madness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
