Where did February go?

I feel like I've blinked and missed February - I know it's the shortest month, but it seems to have zipped past incredibly fast this year!

Some projects I've finished in February:

Glittery socks - a friend sent me some glittery yarn she didn't want, so I turned it into socks ...
... and a couple of pairs of mittens

I finished the hoodie for Niecelet's first birthday
I knitted a couple of scarves


Okay, so three is more than a couple!

And I finished a throw I've been working on since some time last year.


I also spent an afternoon starting to get acquainted with my sewing machine. It was very exciting to sew two pieces of fabric together!

And then I played about a bit more and made this bag
I wouldn't want anyone to look too closely at the three rows of stitching around the top, as they aren't familiar with the word 'parallel', but it is a nice size for taking lunch etc to work and fits A4 paper in it, if I need to bring printouts home from work.

I've also sewn a bit more of my quilt, but I haven't taken a photo of that lately. 

So that was February (apart from tomorrow, of course).

  2. You've made so many wonderful things! I looove the glitter socks. I've been working on a crocheted pair (not glittery). I wish I knew the secret to turning them out faster. My jealousy of women who can crochet or knit them in a few hours is off the chart, LOL!
