FO's and WIP's for October

I actually have some FO's to report this month!

FO's:

1 pair Krazy Stripes socks
1 Crocheted Blanket
2 hats
1 baby sweater
1 baby hat
1 pair baby socks

WIP:

Krazy Stripes hat
felted mittens
striped Whitby socks

UFO:

felted vest for DH
cardigan for me
yoga bag

I made
*the scarf and
*the pink jacket
as I have shown you earlier,
...and of course
*squares!
And I have
*knitted a tote.

Now I have started
a new scarf,
and an off white sweater
from a cotton/linen/wool yarn
which was on a yarn sale.
I bought the last balls,
so I HOPE I got enough yarn,
because it's not in sale anymore.
I know I have enough to finish a neckless sweather,
but this time I'd hoped to make a long and wide neck
(what is that in english??)
But we'll see...!

Hi Everyone,

For the month of October I've done

Two shawls
Five afghans
Two afghans from my 6x6 squares. All I had to do was the edges and
stitch them together.
Two face cloths.

For WIP's

I still have the knit baby sweater, almost done and I'm going to try
and finish it in Nov.

Three afghans, two one piece and one a granny square.

Hugs,

Nora

Thought you might say that .... I should introduce you to my oldest
DD...everything is bright (well, with black, though). She's 10 and
getting (who am I kidding, HAS) a definite style of her own. The other
DD (7yo)loves purples and the little DS (4yo)loves yellow. So lots of
colour around here.

Michelle

Michelle, it sounds like your daughters have very good taste ! And the
one who likes bright, but with black - black makes everything look even
brighter - see, she knows that already !

She's pretty good, but there are times I have to question it....red gym
pants with white/blue trim with a pink and orange shirt....my eyes! my
eyes! She loves to wear her bright shirts under dark hoodies with
jeans.
She picked out the soft lime and pink to go with her black jacket as a
scarf and hat....very nice results. She now wants looong red socks.

And the other one we call 'Mabel Murple' after the character by Sheree
Fitch...everything purple.

Michelle

Short list for moi: 6 x 6 squares and finished the aran sweater.
Marie and the cats

Hi All,

The last time I checked there are only 24 hours a day here too. Now,
want a laugh, I only crochet about a half hour in the morning, and a
little bit watching the news at noon then for about two or three hours
in the evening and that's it. Only four more rows and I'll have the
knit baby sweater done.

Everyone has done a lot and Michelle your list is impressive.

Hugs,

Nora

You, Mirjam? Never!
