pics, as promised

Hardly as delicious as the previous pics (*waving to Val), but I have been knitting until my arms ache and my eyes cross. I am making lots and lots of progress!
Finished:
Yarn- "Blue Bird", Bernat Boa, for my eldest niece, A.
It started as this and is now this- taken from standing on a chair to get the whole thing in, and with a closer shot.







WIP:

"Lovebird", also Bernat Boa, a skein and a third so far.... for my niece M which is working out very nicely. It's creating this sort of (unintentional) pattern that looks so cool. Who would have known!I am making this one shorter, she is 4 yrs old and I don't want her tripping over it. I think 2 skeins will do for this one as well. Though, I have tossed around the idea of a supermini Barbie sized scarf for the Barbie (who came with other outfits) I bought as the rest of her Christmas gift.

By the way....
This is fun. :)

Looking good, but Blogger's servers give 404 (even hard refreshing doesn't help - it usually does) and therefore I've trust in the thumbnails. :(

They are looking really good - you're getting the hang of this now, aren't you?

I'm SOOOOOO happy I don't have as many Xmas pressies to get as you, there are actually moments when I'm glad my family isn't larger than it is... :)

Thanks, I really like (simple) knitting.
And I have chipped away most of that shopping list too.

Beautiful scarves you have been knitting. I started one with Bernat Boa in Parrot last year, but never finished it. I think maybe it's time to either break it out or start again? ;)
