Progress!!!

I made a lot of progress, but it has been slow because I have been working on three different projects.

The first is the same hood for the scarf hood combination. I am worried about how this is going to turn out because it is a big rectangle so far and I don't know how that will turn out.

It looks pretty so far, but I am worried about this shape working out for the hood. It's very good slow mindless work that is extremely relaxing, which is good because of the stress in my life right now.

One of the other projects I have is sort of fun. It's a basketweave scarf for my stepfather made in Cascade Tweed 128 in a very nice turquoise color with these pretty little flecks of color.

It's a very simple pattern, taken from the Lion Brand website, and I think it looks very cool. It's amazing what you can make with just knits and purls!

The third thing I have on my needles is this:



I don't want to say what it is because it is amazing to me that this will make what it does! It's so simple, yet I never would have thought of how to make this! Also, it's a present/surprise for someone.

I should get the yarn to make my little sister's "I'm sorry your horse died" scarf. That will be a priority once I get the yarn. I feel for her. Melvyn was like her best friend.
