Going to the dogs

Literally!

The Beaded Rib dog coat is coming along.

Christmas is now less than a month away, people! This weekend I managed to get a tiny bit more shopping done and my Christmas lights are out on the trees, ready to make their debut in about 45m. The problem is, it was 13C/55F today so it feels nothing like Christmas.

This just in...

Seven sweet skeins of Wool of the Andes in Forest Heather.

Let's get started!

Calm Waters and Fiery Skies

Almost at the end of my third Sea Storm Scarf and I still enjoy knitting the pattern.

I was hoping my order from Knitpicks would arrive before the weekend so I could get started on the next project, but it didn't. That's ok. Maybe I can sneak in a thing or two.

Has the Christmas spirit hit everyone early this year? I've seen tons of houses with their lights blazing and I know I had the Christmas music going last weekend. What's up with that?



And if you're up late tonight, poke your head out to look up at the skies where the Leonid meteor shower is set to take place around 11:45 p.m. EST.

The Road to Bobbilicious

Just like the energizer bunny, I just keep going and going!

I've only got about 2.25 balls left to knit but I can already feel how heavy and warm it's going to be.

Power Knitting

I've been on fire this week (for me).

I motored through and finished (but not blocked) my second Sea Storm Scarf and started my third. I think this makes me a certified Sea Captain and Fleece Artist will have to enlist me for the fleet (pay me in yarrrrrrn!).

Bobbilicious grew by 108 yards and I threw in a suede flower for fun.




This also means I'm well ahead of my Christmas schedule, so I was feeling cocky and ordered a Fiber Trends dog coat pattern for a friend's doggy. He's a big puppy so I'll be doing the one on the left.
