It has been a rather productive year, knitting wise at least. I just counted my finish projects and am quite impressed by myself.
socks - 10 pairs
potholders - 6 pairs
bags - 6 (5 of them felted)
shawl / scarfs - 5
pullovers / vests / cardigans - 5
mittens / gloves - 3
hats - 2
toys - 3
Obviously, I don't need to worry about cold feet and burning my fingers on hot pots shouldn't be a problem, except I didn't keep any of the potholders for myself (most of the socks stayed with me, though)
2010 already saw two finished projects.
The mittered stripes back was finished knitting in 2009, but the sewing together and the felting was done in 2010. I did block it using old video cassettes which worked great and I'm very happy to see it does stand up on it's own. I does shed a bit, still, though.The felting made it shrink by 10 ~ 15%. I would have liked a bit more, but ah well.
The gloves are 100% a 2010 product. I *did* start on the 31st, but had to rib everything up again.
The turned out to be rather small, but they are perfect for me. As it snowed today, maybe they will so some action today already.
Other than that, my mom got me back onto jigsaw puzzles.
This 500 pieces puzzle was fairly easy, but now I'm on another one that's somewhat harder.
