Well, I got half of my xmas knitting done! I got a bunch of Lion Brand Amazing yarn a few months ago for 99 cents a ball (Isn't that great?! It's normally $9.99 each!) so I used part of it to make these scarves for the inlaws. The thinking is, all I have to do now is make scarves for my brother, SiL, parents and grandmother.
The colours I used (in order, left to right) are Olympia, Aurura, Olympia again, Rainforest and Vineland. They're each just ribbed scarves - either in a K1, P1 rib, or K2, P2 rib, or in the case of the two mobius scarves, a k3, p3 rib. Very easy, and I knit until the entire skein was used up.
Instead of knitting, I've been baking for the last two days, in preparation for a belated Christmas celebration (tomorrow) with my inlaws. As a result, my gingerbread bears all got scarves:
These guys are just a sample of the 30 or so DH and I ended up baking. It may be hard to tell, but with the bottom two bears, I was trying to make cabled scarves with them. Yum.
