Time off is wonderful!

A week with the parents for Christmas meant a week of evenings knitting in front of the tv. As a result, I'm almost finished the cabled vent jacket! I had the left front almost done, and now I'm finished it and about 1/2 done the back. So hopefully it will be done by the end of the holidays and I can wear it back the first day of school!

Finally!

It's finally officially finished! I found buttons I liked at FabricLand, but they didn't have enough, so they had to order them in for me and they arrived on Friday! So buttons are on (and a few snaps to avoid gaping around the girls!), the cuffs are fixed and the double breasted jacket is ready to wear! Oh, I'm so happy!

Mitten, mittens

Here are my lovely new Pagliacci mittens. Except I just noticed today that one isn't quite finished. Can you see what's missing?
