So, yes, I decided to make a couple of items this year. For my son, Chris and daughter-in-law, Veronica.
And, yes, these items are not yet completed, but they are at least well on the way. It's a good thing that Chris and his wife usually spend Christmas in Texas with her family, and this year is no exception. I may, or may not, have counted on that.
Anyway, I started this scarf pattern Embrace The Chill (Link to Ravelry) some time ago, because I wanted to try Mosaic Knitting. I like the pattern, and I think the end result is going to be really nice, however, I really like my scarves:
(1) Longer
(2) Thicker
This scarf, while stylish, won't keep me warm when I'm driving to work at oh' dark 30. AND, it looks more like a guy's scarf to me. So, yep, going to give it to my son.
Since I decided on that, I then must do something equivalent for Veronica, which leads to my go to Cowl Pattern Blackberry Path (one of my original designs)
And, progress pics, cause that's what it's really about after all. These are both about 1/2 done, so my plan is to get them finished this next week while I am on Winter Break from teaching.
