Halloween

Today is Halloween and I still have a ton of work to do for it, like carve the bloody pumpkin. I hate pumpkins!! Oh well. We had our party at work yesterday and I was an unfinished knitting project.

This was a lot of fun to make. I wore it over a black top, made some wound wool earrings and a black and red woolball in my hair held by straight knitting needles. One of the guys thought it was great that I incorporated my hobby into my costume. Also it was comfortable to wear. I hate nothing more than a costume that is uncomfortable.

I also went to the Creative Festival this October and bought various wool. One of which I bought 5 balls to make these scarves for the girls for Christmas. I thought they were fun.

these are the five different colours. It took about 20 minutes for each scarf. Greatest project ever!!! The wool is Cocoon by Rozetti and the pattern is from Black Sheep and Ewe.

I also started a new KAL with Birgit Freyer at www.die_wolllust.de, It is a moebius scarf and is marvelous. I found the wool I wanted at the Creative Festival. It is a  mulberry silk in purpleberry. I love the feeling of it. It is sooo soft!!! Just hope I have enough.

Here is the beginning of it:

In between all of this I finished another Mia Bella for my daughter for Christmas. This time in black. I wish though I had added beads into this. It would be so elegant.

 

So I think that is all my news for today.
