Random Catch-up!

Wow, July? July is the last time I posted on my blog? I'm a blog-loser. Please forgive me, any left-over followers I may have! I have a couple of things to show you, though! I thought I'd have a bunch of finished projects to share, but I really don't! What have I been doing with myself? Haha. Here's a couple:

Amy's Instant Oatmeal:

Pattern: Oatmeal by Jane Richmond

Yarn: Plymouth Encore Chunky, 4 balls in color #240

Needles: US Size 11

Amy picked out the pattern and the yarn for this sweater, and it took me only 4 days to make, gotta love that! I think it turned out super cute, but I have yet to get a picture of Amy wearing it.

My Rebel Scum-bag:

yes, I know I'm a nerd.

Pattern: Felted Skull Knitting Tote by Adrian Bizilia

Yarn: Paton's Classic Wool, 2.5 balls in "Natural Mix", and Cascade 220, 0.5 balls in some red color.

Needles: US size 13

I had some yarn in my stash that I wanted to make a felted bag out of, and the pattern I picked had a skull on it, but I wasn't feeling the Skull motif, so I charted my own. I love it! It made a decent sized purse, and knitted up real quick-like. Here's the link to the chart I made if anyone cares.

Amy's Fake Isle:

Amy was in the yarn store the other day and picked up a hat on the class table and said "Make me this!" So, I did.

Pattern: XOXO Cap by Anne Lecrivain-Cozzoli

Yarn: 1 skein Cascade 220 in color #4192 and 1 ball of Noro Kureyon in color #240

Needles: US Size 8

Hot Water Bottle Cozy:

I have a hot water bottle that I use in bed to keep my toes warm when It's cold outside, but the rubbery texture is not really nice to feel with your feet, so thus, a hot water bottle cozy!

Pattern: I wrote up a recipe for making one, here's the Rav link.

Yarn: Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride Bulky, 1 skein in color #M62 (I think)

Needles: I don't remember... maybe 11's?

Fuzzy Feet:

I don't know how long ago I made these, probably sometime last year! I lost them quite soon after I made them, and just found them the other day! Yay! I do remember that I knit them in one sitting! I'd like to make another pair in a more exciting color.

Pattern: Fuzzy Feet

Yarn: Cascade 220, 1 skein in color #8555

Needles: US Size 10.5

That's all I've got as far as knitting things to show ya'll. I'm working on a bunch of different stuff right now, but I can't really show you any of it, because they are mostly Christmas presents! I'm so excited for the Christmas season to start, I can't wait for Christmas music, movies, and all the other warm fuzzies that make me think of Christmas!

I'll leave you with a video of my best buddy:
