Ending the year with Finishes

Hope everyone had a great Christmas. Lots of great gifts were exchanged over in the Campbell (and Curran and Garrison and Becker and Keyes) households. I managed to finish the second sock with half an hour to spare. Well, actually I had more time than that, but I finished it up at 11:30 pm Friday night. My mom’s camera has the photos of my aunt wearing the socks and also photos of my sister and her booga bag. As soon as I get them, I’ll put them up. But until them…

I also finished up the booga bag for my niece which I stuffed with knitting needles, yarn, and a booklet to teach her how to knit.

This week, I decided that I will focus on finishing up some knitting projects before returning to my cross stitch rotation (with only Sunday’s for knitting). I managed to finish up DH’s scarf…

And a hat which we bought the pattern and yarn for at AC Moore on Monday.

And for the details:

Socks – Lion Brand Magic Stripes in Blue and Brown using the basic sock pattern on the label
Booga bags – Black Sheep Bags pattern using Noro Kureyon in colors Earth (for sister’s) and Lipstick (for niece’s).
Scarf – Basketweave using Schachenmayr Alpacana Tweed in jeans tweed.
Hat – Fiber Trends Everyone’s Favorite Hat & Scarf in Gedifra Fashion Trend Color 4512 (brown).
