It seemed I hadn't accomplish much in the way of knitting for the month of January ... but in retrospect, I guess I really did. My MAJOR accomplishment was finishing the "Flannelghan" for my dad's birthday. I actually started it back in the fall and quickly lost interest. I have to confess it got rather boring - all stockinette in those strips (which curled furiously)! Another confession: I had originally planned to give it to him for Christmas. When we decided not to exchange gifts it gave me another couple of weeks to get it finished! Although it wasn't one of my more enjoyable projects I am happy with the finished product. It's very thick and pretty soft.
Yet another striped scarf from my stash for a January birthday gift:
And a scarf and hat set for my niece who turned FIVE!! I still have to get a photo of her wearing it.
And I made a smaller hat for Morgan from this yarn as well ... now THIS is the photo of the month!! :D
Isn't she the cat's meow? Just makes you wanna squeeze those cheeks doesn't it?
I think that's all for my general January knitting ... but I did manage to complete something else very special the first week of February that started in January ... I'll share in a bit. :)
tata for now,
QB
