Okay...finished up two throws this weekend. The first one was my sons which I started back in May when he was here. I know, I know. I got carried away with the sockies and finishing the Giants scarves. But his is done and done!
Garrick's did not photograph very well. The first picture is probably the best. It shows the deep colors in it. He choose a black and a dark blue and a dark purple and then a little color running through it. It was actually very beautiful.
The other one is for a wedding on Saturday....
This one is actually very deep and rich. There is a gray and a light cream color with a variegated colored yarn and then a bronzy color. It turned out very good. I am very impressed --- with myself!
Got another pair of sockies done and started on yet another pair. Probably going to start my nephews blanket in a couple of weeks and I have a very special friend with a birthday in November and she is sooooo gonna get a throw and perhaps, if she keeps the snarkiness to a minimal level, I might get her in a pair of socks as well!
I hope these are not dumb gifts...if they are, you all will tell me, right? I think they are fantastic and I love, love, love putting such a "handmade with love" touch on these gifts. If you have gotten something I have made...I love you.
XOXO
Velvet these are so awesome! I seriously love them. I think that I should pay you to make me one :-)
ReplyDelete@Alyssa -- I think you should ask for one for Christmas!!! They are so much prettier in person...ask Garrick to see his when he gets it.
ReplyDeleteAre you really going to make me one? :-) I keep telling Garrick I am going to steal his when it comes haha
