I have several projects on the go...

1) Fiona's mixed feather/black acrylic scarf. Tis now 55cms long. Might even be finished by the end of winter at this rate. Its very pretty. Gold and purple feathers, which I haven't seen much in public. Most people tend to go for the pink fizz stuff.

2) Ruza's Rustica scarf in camel - halfway there. Im doing this one on size 8 needles with a very very loose tension, so one ball = an hour or so of knitting. About 15 stitches wide, with a really nice, textury result. The yarn is very soft, and goes thick to thin. Weird stuff to knit.

Given that I've taken so long with Fi's more complicated scarf, I might also send her over a scarf in Rustica Coffee brown colour.

3) Hot Pink/Purple (warm tones) thing. Not sure what to do with it yet. Could end up being something for a kid. Shall wait and see what it speaks to me.

4) Shiv's wrist/hand warmers in black acrylic. One side completed, the other one has been started. Due to the tiny needles, its a bit more taxing on the hands.

I may yet have a go at some leg warmers on circular needles.

When Im a little more skilled, I'd like to have a go at this Moebius Scarf.

I'm sorry! :D The one you've done is very lovely though. Such even stitches. As I said to my mother earlier, I count it a triumph if I knit a square that doesn't turn into a triangle. I sent her that URL to the moebius scarf, her being a sometime knitter and science type. I thought it would amuse her.

The moebius scarf is very cool! If only I had the patience for knitting.... oh well, maybe I'll see if I can bribe any of the knitting types here in Canberra :-)
