I have five FOs, everyone! FIVE! See…
\n<\/a>
\nClockwise from lower left: Peak Island Hood, Nubby Cardigan, Glace vest, Delicato mitts and gift socks.<\/em><\/p>\n

But this has been the weather for days and days and days…
\n<\/a>
\nSoggy Weather<\/em><\/p>\n

Therefore, it’s been nigh impossible to take photos of the FOs with me wearing them. The mitts are a gift, and the cardigan and vest fit just fine, so I am pleased. The Peak Island Hood may not be long for this world, but I’ll save that and modeled shots of all the FOs for posts in the new year.<\/p>\n

In three days we leave for the frozen Midwest to visit family, but no worries, M’s grandma’s socks (brown was requested) are done!
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

So what to take to knit for the 12 days we’ll be gone? Well, the purple-grey stripey yarn I got for my birthday is going, and this sock I’ve started with STR mediumweight in Faulty Dyer is going:
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

I’ve just started Rivolo<\/a> by Anne of Knitspot in LL Shepherd Sock in Mixed Berries:
\n<\/a>
\nAnd using the shaping of Frost Diamonds<\/a> by Stefanie Japel (the lace would be too hard for travel knitting) from the Winter Knitty, I’ve started a small version with fleck stitch instead of the lace. The yarn is Fleece Artist Casbah in Seashore (10% cashmere–very nice).
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

M and I wish everyone a wonderful holiday season, and if you are traveling we wish you good roads, connections and a safe journey!
\nMerry Christmas! See you in 2010.
