Other finished objects

More knitting projects from/for the holidays. I don't think I've posted any of these yet.
from the story I posted earlier.

I'm much further now though. Maybe I'll finish it tonight!

for Sambot. and for Jack. Both of those are in Plymouth Encore Colors and I love the random colors that came out in them.

for my co-worker friends. These turned out better in real life than in the picture. As a result, I think I also figured out how I could make a

And unfortunately (well, really, fortunately), I can't post the pattern as I'd intended because it's currently under consideration somewhere else.

Okay, first of all I'm amused by the mannequin that's wearing your grandmother's vest's underwear. Heh. Incongruous.

Second, I'm amused by the SnBN peeking out from under your sweater.

Finally, I'm also amused by the yoga pose like in SnBN.

I am also in awe of all the knitting. I only did four pair of mittens and a scarf this Christmas. I am so tired of knitting right now I've put a moratorium on it till after the New Year, or until I can get to a thrift store and see if there's a sweater to unravel to make Mariah in the winter Knitty. Heh.

That's [livejournal.com profile] automat76's mannequin Candi-with-an-i, who is dressed in a Girls' Gone Wild theme. She went nuts buying mannequins when Lazarus closed downtown, so that was actually the second one I tried. I contemplated removing the lace panties, but decided that would be worse. :-)

And to think, I took the photo before SNBN was out--I was so miffed when I saw that pattern!

I'm getting a little sick of knitting too, but more in that "I just want this sweater done now way." And in that "I want to knit for me all me" way, because I started knitting holiday gifts in August, so it's been a while since I've been selfish with my craft. :-)
