A Couple of Knitting Projects

Sometimes when the weather starts to get a little nicer, I drift from my knitting onto other projects. Not so right now. My needles are happily clicking away almost every night and I have a TON of projects in my "To Knit" file just waiting for me.

Just finished this Granny Bag. I've been wanting to try this pattern for a long time. It was really fun and super easy. Much quicker than my last felted bag! I used Cascade 220 (my favorite). The brown is so yummy--sort of a soft camel.

Saw this pattern on Knitty Gritty and knew I had to try it. It's actually much simpler than it looks. But now I think it's too pretty to use as a dishcloth. Maybe it'd be nice as a baby gift with some soap and bath stuff? It's a beautiful, soft blue. Anybody having a boy soon???

And this is a "Happy Valentine's Day to Me" picture. My husband built me a swift and ordered me a ball winder for my yarn!! No more making the kids stand with their arms out while I wind yarn into balls. Is it just me or are those yarn cakes the prettiest thing you've ever seen? Now what to do with all that pink yarn. Anybody having a girl soon??? :)
