Here is the Live Oak Shawlette I made out of creamy white art yarn. The yarn is silk and mohair with a strand of silver glitter and the pattern was in the Fall 2011 KnitScene.

Shop Samples
Here are some of the samples I've made for The Knitting Corner!
This is a new pattern that comes with a couple of different options. This one is a cabled, buttoned cowl made out of the Manos Maxima. I have enough of the yarn leftover that I'm also making the Turtleneck cowl as well, which is in the round and has a slightly different cable pattern.

Goodbye Summer!
Here is my latest and greatest! This is 'Cybele' out of French Girl Knits by Kristeen Griffin-Grimes. At The Knitting Corner we have "Thank Yarn It's Friday" on Friday afternoons were people can bring in extra, unused balls of yarn to 'gamble' away. We put the yarn in the middle and play a little dice game, winner takes all. It's pretty fun and one week I won this yarn.
I have worn this a couple of times now and I always get lots of remarks. It is cute if I do say so myself!

Old Quilt Photos
I was going through my pictures and found a bunch of quilts I had made prior to the blog being started so I thought I would go ahead and share them now.
This is a square lap-size quilt I made for a family friend who is living in a nursing home. She loves lighthouses, which are featured in the center blue square.
This is a large lap-size Christmas quilt I made for my family, which gets pulled out and put on the living room couch each winter.

Red and Brown Hats
My mom's friend Sandy had sent me a magazine article about some slouchy knit hats and had requested that I make her a red and brown one. I was actually able to use up some of my stash, which was great! I used two patterns from the Holiday 2007 issue of KnitSimple.
I knit them in the car on the way to CA and finished them minutes before she came to my grandma's house after spending time with my mom. :) She offered to pay me for them, but they were so much fun to make and didn't cost me anything so I just gave them to her as a Christmas present (in January). :)
They are really more like tams or berets than slouchy hats, and I think they look really cute on her.
