Progress on Projects

It's been a busy week. I'm keeping up with two of my ongoing projects, but am behind on the one with the complex lace. Here is a picture of one that I feel comfortable sharing (don't want to share the mystery ones).

This project is a recipe that gives basic instructions and then you can choose colors and textures. This one starts with two triangles and then the sides are worked out from the center triangles. Using odds and ends can make interesting pieces :).

I'm starting up the holiday knitting as well. When we're traveling, I need very basic projects so I have this fun basic scarf to work on. Can you tell where the color theme is from?

I was having a conversation with someone in my family and he indicated that he still prefers the Tom Baker Dr. Who. I'm using KnitPicks yarn Felici with colorway Time Traveler. It's out of stock at this point, but I couldn't resist with all of the Felici worsted on sale :). On size eight needles the garter stitch is so springy and lovely.

I'm curious to see how much of a scarf I'll get out of one ball and I have a couple back ups to make the scarf plenty long. I fear the reddish a bit too pink, but I've seen pictures with the color looking more pink.

We had a lovely time at the Tigard Knitting Guild's Knit Out at the Tigard Library yesterday.

Here's my poor attempt at a selfie. We found some lovely yarns in the stash pile and won a few prizes as well. The best part was spending time with my Tigo crafters and meeting new crafty people :).

Onward and upward! Have a great week and I look forward to more progress.
