Carrie K has been busy knitting away on her scarf – unfortunately she has had a bit of a problem with a yarn shortage!

End of Year Knitting Reflections and Contest Entry

What is your absolute favorite project you’ve ever knit (one that fulfilled both process and product)?
I knitted some green lacey socks from a pattern in my pattern a day calendar. They are green Hipknits cashmere.

With the answer to this question, I am now entering Strangelittlemama’s contest.

Which of your handknits do you wear the most often?
Haven’t you noticed all the SOCKS!?

What was your favorite gift to knit?
I loved knitting .

Which of your handknits are gathering dust your closet?
Sadly, it would have to be my Rowan Major Cardigan I knit last Christmas because it hasn’t been cold enough to wear it yet.

Which of your handknits have you gotten rid of?

Clutches items close – are you kidding?

If you’ve knit socks, what is your favorite pattern?
I’ve mainly stuck to simple patterns throughout but I did enjoy the lace one. Nancy Bush’s book of Vintage Knitted Sock is great!

What would you like to make in 2007?
Apart from socks? Hmm, let’s see…. I would love to make a Viveka sweater with the green Malabrigo pao get me for my birthday. I have never knit with alpaca so I’d like to try and simple scarf with it.

What have you learned about your craft in 2006?

I can’t believe how many knitters there are out there!

What events/sites have you particularly enjoyed in the blogosphere in 2006?
I loved Project Spectrum, Socktober and Norovember and it is such fun seeing what people are doing in Debbie Bliss December…

Whew! Now I’m throwing in gratuitous cat pictures for good measure!!

Ariel and Phoebe have been found at different times sitting next to the cheese mouse that pao got me for Christmas. I saw it when I was out Christmas shopping with Mrs B only to find that it had been sold within an hour of me showing it to pao who was with me all the rest of the day. So I was very surprised to find it at the bottom of that big box! I had a great Christmas and once I’ve recovered from my fifth meal out this week tomorrow evening, I’ll share with you the Christmassy stash enhancement and pao’s special wrapping…
