What's on my needles (week 46)

At The Knitting Garage

I am still working on the simple cowl in the beautiful

HiKoo by skacel Simplinatural.  The only reason for only having knitted a little more than half is that the shop has been really busy...and that's how I forgot to take a picture, too.  But do come in and look at it.  We actually had one customer buy the yarn and make a cowl similar to the one I am working on.  The yarn is so nice, but don't take my word for it, come in and touch it :)

At Home

I have been finishing several gifts.  Here are some pictures:

and one in Trendsetter Lino (I had the yarn left over from the hat I made last summer)

Here is a link to the Churchmouse Basic Sock Pattern:  http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/basic-sock-3  This is a great pattern for the beginner sock knitter and is written for two different weight yarns.  You can also purchase a hard copy of the pattern at The Knitting Garage in Rhinebeck.

I finished the toe on one sock, just have to do the other one and kitchener stitch.

I found a nice pattern for angel tree ornaments which knit up quite quickly.  I made a few already and am working on more.

This is a free pattern on ravelry:  http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/angel-choir-set
