Finally, something other than baby cardigans for Pine Ridge. This is a Christmas gift for someone. Who will it be? I used the Skein of Tosh Light bought in Amsterdam earlier this year. The pattern, Reyna by Noora Laivola, is ideal because the openwork showcases the lovely peacock colour of the yarn, instead of fighting with it, as some lace patterns do. It's a free pattern on Ravelry.
But, of course, I have also turned out two of these - 43 and 44. We've been on the road a bit, and I find it soothing to knit while listening to downloads of Radio 4s "Soul Music" on my Mp3. Takes the edge off, I find.

Those mittens are so tiny, I applaud you for even attempting them, but they are gorgeous, as is the shawl. I find knitting in the car much easier than crochet, as I like something to do on long journeys. Take care.
The shawl is perfect , as are the mittens ( to go on your tree I hope !)
And I can't believe you've made so many of these lovely little jackets ... can you now knit them with your eyes shut ?
Your sweaters and mitts are just so cute! I love all the sweaters you have been knitting up!
