Finished!

I love short projects!
Hung it from the light switch to get it up and displayed. :-) We're planning on hanging it on the door to the cabinet under the sink. Such a FAST project, and so adorable when finished. My favorite part? No binding off! :-) You just feed the tail end through the final stitches a few times and pull it tight....then seam the back with the tail yarn. It was beautiful in it's simplicity. Oh, and the directions call for creating an i-cord loop on the top to hang it from...but for me, the last stitch in the second to last row was big enough that with a little tugging I got it free to be the hanging loop. What a delightful project! I have other friends that now want one because they've seen this one while it was on the needles. :-) First time that has happened to me.

Working on the blanket again while I finally force myself to find scarf patterns for Rainier and Whitney. I'm more excited for Whitney's...that Regalia Silk is just calling my name from my stash! So soft and beautiful. ;-)

It looks great, Nicole!

It is always an awesome feeling when people want you to knit them things because they think you are awesome. Congrats on being awesome! ;)
