I have so much on the needles and even the hook right now. I am working on a hat and mitten set for my daughter for christmas and some pot holders and dish cloths for my mom, step mom and mil for christmas. I really would like to do more things for my family and friends for christmas but i am not sure i can get it all done for christmas gifts. I am loving my fiber time!

A hurting wrist means I'm not working on anything and it's making me sad. I think I may have carpal tunnel.

If it is carpal tunnel, although it hurts a bit, the more you use it the better you will feel. That is what the doc. told me anyway.

I am working on a basic watch cap for my son to match his Harry Potter scarf. Then I'll start a Slytherin scarf for my other child, followed by a matching hat.

I started my first ever sweater -- have about 4" of the back done. But..............that is on the back burner cuz I need more mittens (I'm outside for hours a day/everyday). I made a pair of felted mittens and they are the best ever -- not only do they keep your hands warm but they also warm them up if they are cold when you put them on and they are water resistant. Need to do at least 2 pairs before I get back to the sweater -- I'm a slow knitter (more of attention span problem) so hoping to be done in 2 weeks.

hats hats and more hats

I'm making xmas ornaments for my friends and family. i took a break from that to write a pattern for and crochet the little guy in my icon. He is a robot from a television series my husband loves. Next, back to crocheting more ornaments. Have a bunch left to make before the holidays officially start.

Just finished some ornaments where I crocheted a front and back of a cd witha round motif -they shoot rainbows out and the shadow of the crochet piece when hung in the light--dont know how to add pixes to these posts or i'd add a pix-


just now starting a new project - a hat that looks like a nordic viking would wear it - with horns attached to the sides and it has a long beard attached to it- its for my brother in law that likes the tv show game of thrones-gotta hurry to get it done-for gamers out there its like soem helmets in the xbox game skyrim.

I am making a crocheted lap blanket for a friend but it is taking longer than I thought.

My main project is a sweater for my granddaughter. Also on the needles are legwarmers, a scarf, socks, and I am about to cast on a cowl for each of my sisters who ride motorcycles.

I'm about to start another pair of slippers. My mom really liked them.

I'm working on a shawlette with leaves on the border. I had been in a knitting "slump". Knitting for charity but not really knitting anything that made me really excited to be knitting. So glad to have picked the project up after a few month hiatus. I'm so much nicer when I knit. :bigsmile:

I have been feeling the same way, not excited about my knitting. I don't even have a clue why, because I'm always happy with the outcome, just haven't felt the urge. And yea you're right - even my hubby knows if I'm in a slump. It's my therapy, I guess!

I'm making some fingerless gloves from Chawton Cottage Knits. This year I am going to go through my stash and knit a ball or class of yarn until it is gone. Right now I am working through a Ziploc bag of aran 1-ply single skeins.

Crocheting one scarf, and knitting another one at the moment. Then I also have my eye on a pattern for a crocheted lacy prayer shawl. I have trouble just sticking with one project until it is done! Tend to rotate, I do.

I'm trying to figure out my spinning wheel. Right now I'm about half-way through a pair of fingerless crochet gloves ( http://the-arboretum.blogspot.ca/2010/12/idony-fingerless-gloves.html ) - I figured I'd share the pattern link that I found on Ravelry.
