Over the past nine months or so, I think I've become a really good knitter! Look what I've been working on lately:

I gave Julee these socks for her birthday. I adapted them from a pattern on Ravelry.



This is a perfectly-closed gusset - no gap!



Kitty getting in the way, as usual. <3



I designed this pattern. It's a wallet-like purse, about 6" across. I wanted something just big enough to hold a room key and schedule of events at an upcoming Tolkien convention.



These socks are for a friend of mine. The yarn looked awful on the skein, but once it was knitted, I actually liked it.



These socks are my biggest/hardest project ever.






^^^An example of a gusset that's NOT perfectly closed. *grumps*

Those look great. I started knitting a blanket in small chunks years ago but stopped because I forgot how to knit It kept my hands busy which is what I needed when I had access to a TV.

My mom is BIG into all things yarn/thread. SHe loves to make all sorts of stuff

LOL, those socks really are YOU!

LOL!!! learning a new skill is always fun, but you have wayyyy too much time on your hands.

It's summer, and I'm jobless right now - I do have too much time! But it's a good way to pass the time, doing something productive.

Jeni, the rainbow socks really are ME! You're right!

Why no job this summer?

I'm working on finding one. I finally got a call back from ONE of them, and I can't take it now because of my car wreck.

Those socks are very nice.

I started knitting last year and have only really done winter stuff so far, a few scarves and some mittens. I did however knit a fish toy to sit in front of my bettas tank, it's pretty cute.
