Oh, well done ... they are so cute. I can't do such detail, never could, that's why I do Afghans, scarves, etc.

 

Made this neck cowl with some of the leftover yarn ...

 

Thats lovely Vicky I'm doing one for hubs at the moment too.

 

I think neck cowls are better than scarves. I have one, and fingerless gloves, the type with half a finger actually (besides my fine leather gloves). My brother in law took a neck cowl back to Germany as he thought they were so great.

 

I love the neck cowl, Victoria! Have you done an “infinity cowl”? It’s made a little looser than an ordinary cowl, with a half-turn when joining up…. I find that they are v good at trapping warm air around the neck!

 

Yes Sian, have in the past and also doing one now, @Upsydaisy knits them too.

 

Finished an afghan for our bedroom ...

 

That's nice, it has a homely cozy feel

 

Oh wow Vicky that is fab!! Is the colouring patternation naturally obtained in the yarn or did you have to use different shades ? Love it.

 

Lovely Victoria

 

These are wonderful @Victoria! I took a beginners knitting class in December and am currently trying to knit some ribbed legwarmers. I am very slow!

 

Thank you @michael Hewitt, @Upsydaisy, @Logan and @PassTheFox. Jim likes it better than I do and says we must keep it and not give it to the Cat Charity. I have started on a baby blanket now. @PassTheFox it is crochet and I contribute most of what I do to a Cat charity who look after about 300 colony cats, ie, feed them, neuter them and take care of their medical needs. We are both cat lovers and they have owned us for 56 years.

 

It's Hewett with an E @Victoria, otherwise I won't get an alert, and a different Michael will think you're talking to him
(My Hewett ancestors were very adamant that it was spelt with an E )

 

My sincere apologies Michael. I should have known better!

 

No need to apologize @Victoria, I don't really mind, but unless you spell Hewett with an E, I don't receive the alert, and it goes to some other 'Michael'. That's the only reason I pointed it out
