So lame.
The end of year activities have swallowed my knitting life. I have a rotation project to wrap up and present to the lab on Monday. I have Holiday parties to go to. I have masses of lab work still to do. My head may well explode.
No knitting. No Odessa for the handmade gift swap. I tried and failed several times to initiate a new handmade gift, but these futile attempts were usually begun at midnight and ripped out by quarter past. I am terrible.
But, I am/was prolific at one point. Remember these guys? Oh and this! I still have it somewhere..... Heh, they'll do! Now if I can only remember where I stashed them....
I hope you got your handmade gift sorted out.
ReplyDeleteLooking through your blog, I really liked your version of Alice. Using toning shades (rather then contrast like the original) makes for a more nicer sweater.
Thanks for the complement about Alice :) I agree that the black and red was a bit dramatic, but my colour choice was more through stash busting necessity than real indepth thought.
ReplyDeleteAs for the gift, I gave away the knitted teddybear and it went down a storm. Hurray for knitting!
