I've been in my favorite knitting spot on the sofa quite a bit since we came home from Thanksgiving. I love sitting there with the cat children and being cozy, knitting, watching TV, and spending time with my dear hubby. Here I'm just starting the second mitten to my cat mitten pair with the help of Gracie, the only one of the kids that wasn't asleep at the time.
And here they are, newly finished and modeled by Rosie and Sammy. I absolutely loved working on these fun patterns by
Jorid Linvik! If you're interested they are available on the web or via
Ravalry. I did them in Worsted Weight Lamb's Pride
Superwash, though I probably will do any future pairs in Sport weight. I did them on 5US circulars.
I absolutely love the paw prints and the fish bones on the palm sides of the mittens. :) 2 color (Fair Isle) knitting is so easy and so fun and interesting, and now I even have a great pair of mittens that are perfectly suited to wear with my uniform coat!
I finished these socks last week too, these are the September 2008 Socks That Rock project. The pattern is called Cloning
Anenome Rib and the color way is Tide Pooling. They were fun and easy and I absolutely love the colors! Now I'm off to work on other unfinished projects in my project basket. Knit on!

Those mittens are totally awesome!! I wonder if the designer has a similar pair for us dog lovers out there. The sock remind me that I really need to find Yarn Harlot's "Knitting Rules!" book so I can go back and finish the first pair of socks I started two years ago!!
