Herringbone scarf

I recently had my wisdom teeth taken out and recovery gave me some time to make progress on my newest project, a herringbone stitch scarf. Details are available on my Ravelry page. As are some of the other projects I've finished recently.
I really like it, its a very dense stitch and should be nice and warm. It tends to knit up skinnier than stockinette, hence the skinny scarf. Nonetheless, because its so dense, not having to fold it over will be a good thing.

Baby Kimono

I've officially finished my first sweather, and thank goodness it fits! There's even some room to grow.

I used a free pattern from Berroco and Misson Falls 1820 cotton.
We'll see what happens in the washer!

Does this make sense?

A netflix recommendation:

Item of the week!

Breakfast is back! Organic Pop-tarts: they're good for me, right?

Mini-clappy

I guess I'm on a roll, because I recently finished a small version of the Clapotis. I had 500 yds of Brook's Farm Duet, instead of the recommended 1000 yds, so I was constantly worried about running out. To make it smaller, I repeated sections 1 and 3 only four times, and section 2 eight times. But as you can see in the picture I had plenty left over, so I could have made it bigger. Nonetheless, I'm happy with the more scarf-like size.

baby sweater voodoo

I'm almost done with the sweater I've been knitting for my niece. This is the first item I've ever blocked. The red towel is soaked and I'd like to change it out, but I'm afraid to mess it up. I excited to finish it, I've been dragging my feet, so I hope it isn't too small now. The wrap design (from here) should allow for some slop. I hate sewing so much, it was only the Firefly marathon that kept me focused enough to even start it.

Me as a Simpson

So I made an avatar of myself at the Simpson's movie website, isn't it good? Everyone should have one! They have a surprising number of options and I really enjoyed the random avatar generator.
