yarn along

i'm very excited to show you this little guy

 who reverses into this little guy

see?  isn't that the coolest thing?

there's the boy i knit it for who decided he did want it after all.  

he has put in an order for a giraffe he spotted on the cover of the book though...  

i also finished the hot water bottle cozy and had to add some embellishments of my own because the cross did not come out centered.  hmmm.  a pattern flaw perhaps?  

and here are my current knitting projects and read.  i got the book from the AUC student library where there is a rack of donated novels from previous and current students and spouses.  it's a nice way to get a quick read when you're out of money or books!  i am enjoying this book and it is making me want to go back and reread all the jane austen novels i so loved when i first read them.

on the needles are a pair of fingerless gloves (in the pretty peach colored yarn), a zebra hand puppet for ezra's sweet friend bianca who loves zebras, and a beanie out of the earth tone colored koigu.  i still have 3 or 4 projects in the queue for the holidays...  happy knitting yarn along friends!
