Your greatness is not what you have, it's what you give.

Busy knitters

Debbie returned from her trip to Paris (where she had a wonderful time) with a bunch of FO's. This hat is knitted with worsted weight using a Gansey pattern. Or is it Guernsey? Maybe they're interchangeable.
 She started a hat but wasn't sure there would be enough yarn so it's become a headband. Some people don't like to wear a hat over their whole head so this is a good way to keep ears warm without messing the hairdo.
 She also made a pair of fingerless mitts to match the hat she dropped off a few weeks ago.
 Liz completed her Present Cowl with a variegated yarn. You'll see another one she started a little further down.
 Cinzia finished the vest with the Chevron back. The pattern shows up nicely.
                                        
 But the vest has an awkward shape so someone who is very thin will have to claim it.
 Carole volunteered to model it and it looks good on her.
 I finished a worsted weight 2 x 2 ribbed hat. This is a great pattern to knit up quickly. And it's easy to memorize too.
 Cinzia spent the afternoon working the ends in on the vest so she could leave it in the inventory.
 Liz started another cowl with the same yarn as her Present Cowl but it looks so different because she started this one with a different color and pattern.
 Barbara's Palindrome Scarf is pretty long. Almost finished!
 And Debbie started another cowl. Love the chambray color!
 Dorah started a hat tonight.
 This is the pattern which comes in multiple sizes from baby to adult.
 Carole's Helix Hat is at the point where she'll be decreasing stitches for the crown soon.
 Maureen's Last Minute Cowl is almost finished too.
 Margaret's Ombre Hat has started showing the dots of color that look like falling snowflakes.
 Do you remember the Rickroll Wrap from last week that I made for my friend Connie? My husband delivered it to her over the weekend.
 She studied the video tutorial on all the various ways it can be worn.
 And it fits her perfectly. More importantly, she loves it! And she even had a blouse that matched the green exactly.
I have the same yarns to make one for myself too. After I finish some WIPs on needles I'll start mine.
Hmmm...how long do you think it will take me to finish 7 projects?
