I was home sick again on Monday, March 8.

First of all, WTH? is up with all the sick lately?

Anyways, I hung around at home, on the sofa, watching Angel on DVD and knitting.

I made a baby slipper, which took about an hour, but I wasn’t in the mood to knit its pair right away. I’ll probably do that this evening.

I made a hat out of some chunky yarn that I’ve had for ages. I was about to start on a matching scarf, but I couldn’t decide on a stitch pattern that appealed to me, so I set that aside.

I got about 75% of the way through a wrist warmer made from Bernat Jacquard in Geranium.

I’m hoping to finish it and make its pair tonight. It’s a really quick knit, because the yarn is medium weight, unlike the other wrist warmer/fingerless glove patterns that I favour which take days because they are made out of sock yarn. Obviously, this will not be a summer weight accessory, but I can wear them outdoors in the spring and fall, and in the winter sometimes the indoor temperatures are cool enough to warrant them.

I’ll post pictures of the finished projects soon. Actually, not of the hat and scarf, I am planning to give those to someone for Christmas, and I don’t want to ruin the surprise for them.

    Fun knitting projects. I am 1/4 through sock #2 and totally jazzed about it and how not so hard #1 was at all!
