The sweater is DONE. Well, nearly. I just need to get the husband to pick out a zipper (after I do much research on choosing the right length, attaching it, etc.), attach the zipper and then block it. But still, this mammoth project is off the needles!

I am feeling rather proud of myself... the collar even stands up on it's own! Oh yeah... I have finished my first sweater... and even if the husband doesn't wear it, I most certainly will... it is SO snuggly! Now it's time to look at making myself a sweater :)

Looks a bit like a girl sweater, doesn't it? I tried it on... it's yummy... if the husband doesn't like it, I'm definitely adding it to my wardrobe. Now that the sweater has arms it takes forever to get a row done... thank goodness I'm decreasing every other one :)

Monkey's are DONE! I'm wearing them today to see how they work... woo hoo!!

FO: Office Mitts

Pattern: Hand/wrist warmers from Last Minute Knitted Gifts. This is the gift that keeps on giving, loving all of the patterns I've knit from it so far...

Yarn: Lion Brand wool. I purchased this yarn for the easy legwarmers from LMKG. I still need to cast on for the second one, but only used up one skein for the first, so I had an extra skein to burn, why not handwarmers?

Notes: Love, love, LOVE this pattern! It was easy (finished in one night) and looks awesome. It keeps my hands warm in the ridiculously cold office and I'm sure will do the same once it gets cool enough to get cold in our house. It also used a small amount of yarn, so this will be a great way to use up those yarn remnants from soaker or other wool knitting.

I'm going to make a pair of these for each of my admins at work as christmas gifts. :)
