Kitteh Hat. Made with 1 strand of handspun from Needlefingers and 1 strand of Kitten Mohair. Made to keep Edler's head warm. Messed up on the crown decreases, so it poofs at the top. Will have to rip and redo, or just admonish her to keep it pulled down. Jan 2009

Fiber Trends Booties. Hated It. (favorite skit from In Living Color!). Seriously. I hate this pattern. Too many ends cut to pickup and knit somewhere else. Won't make these again. Or if, heavily modify them. I do love the original with the needle felted design. Cascade 220 Quatro. Made for sweet Mak, who loves my knitted gifts and loves to knit. Jan 2009 

Caryl's Kerchief. Love it!!! Claudia Handpaint Sport yarn in a plum colorway. This is for my cousin who shares my birthday day. A little late though! It was a quick knit, started January 27th and finished the 30th. The 4 snow days didn't help! I did 6 repeats and 2 additional rows. Jan 2009

Machoghan Square. The Bunker group on Ravelry is doing an afghan for our hero Macho Sauce. The squares are to be 6" and they are done in a mitered fashion. Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino. Here is my contribution. Feb 2009

Lisa's Surprise Shawl. Pattern is Carol's Clever Shawl. Yarn is Elann Peruvian Highland Wool. 4.5 skeins for about 500 yards. I knit this exactly as written. Aren't you proud of me! Mine, yes there will be a mine, will be modified. She loves it! Feb 2009

Ris Dale of Norway sweater. Dale of Norway and Shepherd Baby yarns. Dale of Norway pattern. I love this sweater! I want a grown up version for myself! Feb 2009
