Cardi + baby hat

wooo Merry Christmas!

New project:
Mrs. Darcy Cardigan from Ramblings of a Knitting Obsessive: www.indieknits.wordpress.com/patterns-2/patterns
I really love her blog! Here is a picture of what I have done so far:

The back, right side, and some of the left side. If I get lazy and/or run out of yarn, it might become a vest. We'll see.
I'm knitting it in Lion Brand Wool Ease in Cranberry, mostly because the yarn was cheap. One day I'll make a real wool sweater, one day...

Also, for my niece, Renate (who is due any day now), I whipped this little guy up. Tomato Baby Beanie.

Here it is flattened. It looks like it's made with the same color as the cardigan, but it's just some red yarn I found in my mom's stash closet. The colors are really wonky in all of my pictures recently. I need to mess around with my camera and try and figure that out.

It's also occurred to me that no one really reads this blog. I'll have to send the link out and remedy that. Not that there's much to see, so far. But I have big plans!
