Busy Bee Me!

I'm proud of myself.
I'm finally getting shit done! Whoo!

Take a look at these things I got done!
Pattern Danica(<--- Rav link)
Yarn Paton's Classic Wool Merino in colorway New Denim and Worn Denim
Needles Size 8 metal needles of doom.
Started 11/28
Finished 12/21

There's really no reason that this took me forever to get through. It went super fast, but I got sick of it about half-way through. You've had that happen, right? Meh.

Pattern Socktopus(<-- Rav link)
Yarn Lion Brand Wool-Ease Worsted in colorway 104 Blush Heather + Scraps
Needles Size 5 dpns
Started 12/17
Finished 12/25

Made this for my little cousin Makenna for Christmas. I loved it. Super easy. The legs took a bit to do, though.

AND:
Pattern Helmet Liner(<-- Rav link)
Yarn Lion Brand Wool-Ease Worsted in colorway 152 Oxford Gray
Needles Size 6 dpns, size 8 circs, size 8 dpns
Started 12/13
Finished 12/28

This was a relatively quick knit. The ribbing took forever. Made it for a friend I work with to keep her face warm since she's constantly going in and out of the cold. Hope it helps her out a bit.

Not a whole lot else has been going on. Knitting group has been going really well. It's still mainly just a few of us, but I love everyone there, so it's all good. We've all gotten over any awkwardness now that we know each other better, and I'm having fun. Which is what I wanted. :]

Sunday I will be learning how to play Dungeons and Dragons. Hahaha! That's what I get for making friends with nerds all the time. I can't help it, though. I fit in so well! ;)

Hope everyone has a good holiday! I'll be cleaning and knitting. Whoo!
