It's the finished project round-up today. This was tote bag weekend. All totes, all the time.
The first two photos are of a birthday gift tote for our cousin Victoria, who turned 8 last week. It was filled with blank paper doll templates and ribbon and fabric for creating beautiful clothing and accessories. Next up is Lindsay's Very Sturdy canvas tote. Last, but not least is the makings of Gunnar's tote. It is now finished, but we don't have photos yet. A twin to Victoria's tote was also made for Annika.Other finished projects include:
A Clapotis shawl knit out of Sundara Silky Merino Sportweight in Raspberry Ripple. It's slightly narrower than the original and used exactly two skeins of yarn (I had 24 inches left over). Next up is Jeff's blanket, partway done. I just thought I'd show the progress. I need to cast on the next color strip in brown, which will go across the light blue and green. Then we repeat the colors with more blocks. It's currently about 2 feet x 3 feet and will end up being 4 feet x 5 feet or so. It's knit in Lavold Silky Wool. I am also working on a pair of Jaywalker socks that are a gift. They're knit out of Socks that Rock medium weight in Fairgrounds. I'm up to the gusset, then on to the foot. I'll show a progress shot this weekend.
Hope to be more exciting next time.
