Tucking the knitting needles away

                                                                                                                        

It's back to sewing for me for a while!  I did some knitting for presents for Christmas and now I need to finish up some gifts for my parents.  I made a pattern yesterday for one of these gifts and sewed it up, I am so pleased with how it turned out.  I can't show you all yet, but soon, after my mom receives it!  I can hardly wait to show you!!!!!  So, for now, a couple of gifts I knitted for family in Montana. 

First is a scarf I made for one of my nephews, Trey.  He's eight and is all boy, um, except that he likes to periodically crochet, and LOVES sports.

                      

                                             

And here is a scarf for his dad, my husband's brother.  It is made of a silky soft alpaca blend.

                            

I also crocheted a camo beanie out of this wool   

                                                    

and forgot to take a picture.  It is a cabled pattern and turned out very nice.  I also serged a liner for it so if it needs added warmth, he can put the fleece liner on first.  Lenny has made sure I will make at least one more of these for him. 

I'm off for now!
