Gawain and Booties

I've been keeping my head down to try to mange the continual stress. So what is better than to dive into projects. They occupy the mind and hands, and keeps the spin down. FOs are just side effects.

First, Gawain (Ravely link). it is a gorgeous pattern and I had to knit it. It totally jumped the line and move to head of the queue. I love the neckline and and the center panel of asymmetrical cables. Lovely sweater.

Second is a pair of booties for twins - boy and girl. (Ravelry link) Small quick project to spread some love. Thanks GD for giving me navy yarn :)

What to do when hands and wrists are achy from all the knitting? Why try crochet?! I've been wanting to learn more crochet. So I started Queen Anne Lace scarf (Ravelry link). WIth help from J, the Internets, Harmony Guide to Crochet, and a lot of frogging. I think I am on track now.

Big little booties

(Ravelry link) I really like Converse All Stars Chuck Taylors. I have had many pairs and am sad that I can not wear them anymore (due to my foot issues). These are for my cousin's boy. They were fiddlely but very adorable.
