I've started knitting again. I more or less stopped when I started writing again, but lately I've suddenly got the urge to knit again. I finished off the hat I'd promised [livejournal.com profile] jadesfire2808 in time to give it to her when she visited the other week, and since then I've started a very basic scarf (1x1 rib, which I can do without looking or thinking and can therefore knit even whilst watching programmes I need to pay attention to - like DW *g*) and yesterday I began a cute little sleeveless hoodie for Jack which I can also use as a stash-buster (i.e. using lots of wool I've already got and thus reducing the storage room necessary for my wool when we move).

And since I forgot to take a picture of Jades' hat before I gave it to her (because I'm out of practice at these things!), here are some pictures of other things I've knitted.


Photobucket
Finger puppets I made for some of the mother and baby group babies' first birthdays.

And some more.

Caterpillar
A cuddly caterpillar I made for one of them for his first Christmas (we did a Secret Santa so I only had to knit for one of them).

Nana's shawl
And the piece de resistance: a shawl I knitted for my Nana's 95th birthday last May. This is the most complicated thing I've ever done and I'm really, really proud of it.

Hayfever's still bad today. I'm still dopey because I couldn't sleep - again. Grrr.
