I joined JL Fleckenstein's 2016 Mother's Day Shawl KAL on Ravelry. I am knitting this in Zauberball in Creme Chocolate colourway. It is looking pretty good, I am really liking how the colour changes are going.
Winter is coming and the weather is starting to cool now with the nights a bit cooler which is so comfortable sleeping. Not that I seem to be sleeping much, I have been up way to late knitting of a night, even through the week when I have to get up early for work. I need to stop this bad habit and go to bed a lot earlier. I get so wrapped up in my knitting and once I am past the first time of feeling tired and then all of a sudden it is "lights on" and I am wide awake and knitting along nicely.
Some of my knitting the last couple of weeks has been a feathers yarn beanie for a lady at works mothers who has cancer and had brain surgery, this type of beanie is soft and comfortable to lay on after head surgery. A nice pair of Cable Fingerless Mittens, I only got a photo while knitting them and not when they were finished. A Mock Cable jumper for my new grandson and a matching beanie I made up the pattern so it matches the jumper. I finished the pink and the blue matinee jackets for my grandson and granddaughter, Oh how I am loving that their parents want me to knit, I am in "Gran" knitting heaven. What else, what else have I been knitting, time goes by so quick I forget what I have knit. At the moment with 2 projects on the needles, the first being the shawl KAL and an adult beanie in Cleckheaton California, this will be a nice chunky beanie in black, grey and white colours.
