Knitting Group Christmas Presents 2010

These were the Christmas gifts exchanged in our knitting group this year. I want to thank everyone for the lovely gifts. Mine was the owl scissor fob, I made them in various colors and each person chose their own personal favorite. Cookies were made by Mari, the sweater by Xana, the crochet heart by Filomena, the "dessert" in the jar by Maria Jose. Thanks again

Christmas Knitting

I've been busy doing Christmas Knitting. That's to say I've been busy knitting present to give at Christmas. These are all the same pattern, but using a variegated yarn (Carina bought at Wibra in Den Haag and Leidschendam, Holland), they get a different look. The two above were from one ball of Carina, leaving me with about 10g left over, these two are currently blocking. The one below is the first one of two as well, the second one is about halfway done. These mini shawls/kerchiefs are super easy to make and you can find the pattern here, it's a free Ravelry download. I manage to average about 4 hours per kerchief. I hope the recipients will like them.
