Now that January has got into its stride, here's a look at gifts I made for Christmas.


Fingerless mittens for Liz in hand dyed high twist merino; my own design using a stitch pattern from a Japanese stitch dictionary.


Elise shawls for Kris and her mum in hand dyed BFL sock.

Long crochet scarf with fringe for Julie; my own design in Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino.
On the what's-on-the-needles-now front, not much. Huldran is progressing slowly (lovely, lovely Wollmeise) and there are a couple of pairs of plain vanilla socks on the go. I think I'd better go cast something else on!
