I have been working on a new sock design, and it has been a real work in progress as I am trying to write out the pattern as I go. I am on the second sock now, and am finding errors in my pattern. I think I may have to knit a second pair to work out the kinks.</div>

On one of my Ravelry forums we are doing a group afghan. We each make 4 squares for each of 6 people, then we receive 4 squares from each of those 6 people, and we have an afghan. Following are some of my squares. </div>

I bought this red cashmere sweater from a thrift shop for a few dollars. It had a nice cable down the front, but it seemed a bit dated, and I cannot wear turtle neck sweaters. I unraveled it, washed it and skeined it. Now I just have to decide what to knit with it. It is super soft and nice.</div>

I finished knitting my socks over a week ago, but just now got around to posting them on my blog. I adore the color of this yarn. I have two people on Raverly who test knit the sock pattern for me, and I want to thank them, so Thank you Jean and Linn!</div>

I knitted this tea cosy for a swap on Ravelry. The pattern is from the book "Gifted" by Mags Kandis.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I embellished it by knitting in two colors and adding knitted roses and mice. A big thank you to Janet McMahon for her pattern of baby mice on Ravelry.</div>

I think this turned out really cute! I used Philosopher's Wool for the body of the teapot cosy and scraps of other wool for the flowers and mice.</div>

I have been working furiously on my design. I have scribbled erased, knitted, frogged, and knitted again. but I have finished one sock and am quite happy with the design. The picture below is not really very representative of the color as it was taken with horrible flash, because the day was so overcast.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I am now busy deciphering my notes and have started on the second sock. I will have to make some adjustments before I will be ready to publish the pattern, because I have little quirky things I have done that will have to be clarified. I am very happy with the design and am trying to come up with a name for the pattern. For some reason, the color makes me think of Paprika! This is closer to the real color of the yarn.</div>

They were not fun to knit, I kept forgetting to knit through the back loop, and I ran out of this yarn about 1 1/2 inches from the end of the toe, which is why my toes are over the other toes! I tried to find more of this yarn, only to find that it was discontinued, so I ordered the same color, but with a slightly different content, and it really didn't match. The socks are for my daughter, and she didn't mind the mismatch, so I guess all turned out okay.</div>

Meanwhile, I knitted these socks, and I love them. They were fun to knit and they fit like a glove! I really like the unusual way they were knit and this was the first time I did a short row heel.<br />

I have been knitting the Hedera socks from the book "knit. sock. love." They are the first socks in the book. I started them about two weeks ago and it has been slow going. The pattern is easy and once you get the repeats down it is actually really easy. I don't know why I have so much trouble following the repeats. I have to actually stop and check each row when I finish to make sure I put in the right amount of yarn overs. I have finished one sock and am now about a third of the way through the second, but I keep putting it down and going to other projects. The yarn is really pretty and easy to work with, so it isn't the yarn. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am using Pagewood Farm Denali in the colorway of Grasshopper, which is a really close match to the color of the sample in the book. I am knitting with #1 dpn needles. </div>

I have been working on a new fingerless mitts design this month and have finally finished knitting two pair to try to check the pattern for errors or confusion. The first pair were knitted with Sensation Kashmira yarn, which is a very lovely yarn that has been discontinued. Sensation Kashmira is a worsted weight wool, but is actually more like a DK weight. I love the red colorway, and I really designed these mitts for Valentine's day. I was exploring ideas about hearts and x's and o's, but I love the idea of the lines apart, then meeting and parting again, thus the name Sweet Partings. I knit the second pair with Paton's Classic Wool DK Superwash. The Paton's is very nice, but not as soft or defined as the Kashmira.</div>

There is an error in this pattern, and I have published the revised pattern on Ravelry. I am sorry for any inconvience this may have caused!<br />
<br />
Designed by Janice Kuykendall<br />
I have designed a pair of fingerless mitts for a KAL group on Ravelry. They are for the January selection, so I have been refining the pattern, and I have a working pattern now. I would love to have someone knit the pattern and then let me know if there are any errors or confusion in the pattern. The pattern and photographs follow.</div>

I have been busy knitting and crocheting Christmas gifts for my family.</div>

I crocheted this shawl in Cherry and White colorway for my Mom for Christmas. I used Bernat Alpaca Natural Blends yarn, which is a blend of 70% Acrylic/ 30% Alpaca. She doesn't like wool, so I had to find something that she would feel was soft enough. I used a size N crochet hook and a free pattern from Lion Brand Yarn. I added a white border that was not included in the pattern.</div>

I also knitted and felted these French Press Slippers from Paton's Classic Wool in the colorway of Peacock. It was an easy pattern with nine pieces that had to be stitched together, then felted. These are for my Mom for Christmas also.</div>

I knitted these moccasins for my Aunt for Christmas. I found the pattern in a booklet. They are knitted from Paton's Classic Wool in the colorways Cranberry and Loden. They are supposed to have beads on the toes, but I liked them better without the beads.</div>

I knitted these fingerless mittens from Lion Brand Vanna's Choice. The swap used Lion Brand Yarn that was acrylic or acrylic blend and since my partner is allergic to wool, I chose a 100% acrylic yarn. These were knit with a worsted weight yarn on # 3 needles.</div>

I am participating in a KAL on Ravelry. The pattern was designed by Janet Weston and is called La Sarita. I chose Dream in Color yarn in the colorway of Frozen Fire for my project. This was a fun pattern to knit and I enjoyed knitting it. The stitches were interesting and kept it from being boring. I chose matte beads for the it. </div>

I needed a gift, so I decided to make armwarmers as the person they are for lives in a cold winter climate. I had this beautiful Cascade 128 yarn in a lovely gray shade. I improvised as I went along. I wanted something simple, yet interesting, so when I got to the wrists, I decided to add some more ribbing. I think they turned out just right. You can wear them over your elbow,</div>

These Handwarmers were knit for the same swap. I knitted them from Red Heart Eco-Ways Bamboo Wool, from a pattern in Jane Austen Knits 2011. I changed the picot edging on the pattern, because I didn't like the way the edging looked. I made a smaller picot edging, it seemed much neater to me.</div>
