Back in the saddle -- knitted, of course

I've been lax on the updating in regards to my knitting. One would think that is because it's summer and thus no knitting has occurred, but one would be wrong. I have been knitting up a storm. I've been knitting so much, in fact, that I have been unable to write anything because it meant putting down the needles.

As an intro back into regular updating (I promise... this time, I mean it!) I thought I would show you what I have been up to.

My sister Ky was nice enough to come and take pictures of my creations for me. After an afternoon of modelling my goods, I finally had a portfolio of sorts. Since the last time I showed you the brooches I got. I figured this time, I would show you some of the finished product.

This is what I created for the brooch that Grandma gave me. I wanted something unique and pretty. I used burgundy wool yarn I got online and found a really cute top down knitted cloche. Seeing it finished? I think I'm in love.

This scarflett is of the same yarn as the hat, but in a brioche stitch. It turned out nice and thick, super chunky and the perfect piece to showcase the snowflake brooch.

Of course, I have a lot more to show you. But, since I promised regular updates... I think I will save them for later.
