Knitting Projects

Here's what I've been up to with the knitting.

First, I made my new winter hat:
This was pretty time-intensive with an intricate (for me) pattern and a small gauge, but I'm thrilled with the results.

The yarn has a bit of merino wool and because I knit it tight, it's already proven to be up to the task of blocking the Providence winds.

Seriously, this is the windiest place I've ever lived.

Second, I knit a scarf and several hats for homeless veterans in Rhode Island. A lady in the Rhode Island group on Ravelry gathered donations and I was happy to participate.


Third, some Christmas gifts, which I'll post pictures of after they've been given.
