Bit of This, Bit of That

So I have been asked what I plan to make with the yarn I showed off two posts back. Right now this is what I am planning on making with it.

The Retro Prep Pullover from Interweave Knits Fall 2002. I won't be able to get to it for a while as I have a few projects in front of it and I can shop much faster than I knit. I really like the green that the sweater pictured is in, but green and I don't always mix so I figured blue was safer.

Here's another photo of the Alien Illusion Scarf. I have added two more heads, but it isn't getting knitting priority right now. I hope to have my last two Christmas gifts knitted up in the next week and then I can devote my time to finishing the scarf. It's for my husband and I would like to have it finished by Christmas, but he will understand if it's not. The pattern calls for two more heads so I am almost done but my husband is 6'2 so I want to make it longer so he can wrap it a few times around his neck.

I finished a few smaller projects last night bringing me down to eight wips left to complete. These are the second to last pair of fingerless mitts I need to have knit for Christmas.

and these are some little sachets I started in the summer and then left to molder away in the project cupboard. They are kind of cute finished and I filled them with lavender so they smell nice. Right now they are in my stash trunk warding off moths but there is a good chance they will become Christmas gifts. We will see.

I've wanted to make the cardi version myself. One of these days. :) I like the Alien scarf, I think my hubby needs one. Those sachets are pretty!

Very pretty work - all of it. The sachets are lovely. And the alien scarf is FUN! I'm sure you're hubby will be happy whenever he receives it. And I too love blue...what a great color for your pullover. You sure are making great progress!
