So one of my New Year's resolutions is to post here roughly once a week. It has so far gone ok... But we'll see how long my resolve holds. I don't have much to show for the last couple of weeks in terms of FO but pretty soon there will be a multitude. For the moment, I find myself in the middle of the road in many things. These days I seem to have trouble finishing things. On the needles right now are a pair of Fuzzyfeet for DW, a Winter Femme Hat for my mother, a tea cozy for grandma, of my own design, and I still have a pair of Almost Argyle socks that were supposed to be a Christmas present but there was no way that I was going to get them done in time. I'm about 2/3's of the way done with the first sock and I haven't worked on it since before Christmas. Oh well.... They will be much appreciated when they are finished so I don't worry too much.
One half of the un-felted fuzzyfeet. I finished this one nearly a year ago and just never got around to casting it's mate.... I really need to get better about finishing what I start, I keep finding half finished projects tucked into corners of my stash that I completly forgot about.
One side of my tea cozy almost done. Size 8 needles, Sugar 'n Cream cotton, color "Shades of Green". The cable is from the pattern Samus at Knitty.com. I'm really happy with the way that this is turning out. The last tea cozy that I made didn't fit any of my tea pots very well and while it did keep the tea warm, it was not very attractive which was the entire reason for making it in the first place.
Well, I'm off to bed now.. I'm going to see my dad sing at the Flint Festival of Choirs tomorrow. It should be really fun, this is one of big choir festivals I used to participte in when I was in high school and the first couple of years of college. They bring in guest conductors who are well known to direct pieces that either they have written or that they choose. This year it is David Dickau who is one of my personal favorite composers. I'm really excited, it should be an excelent concert.
