Well, Tepes is nearly done. I just have to weave in ends and embroider the spikes. It would have been nice to have had it done in time to be helpful during the Snowpocalypse, but I managed to survive without.
But I'm putting that aside for the moment, because...
It's Ravelympics time!
I'm doing two projects for Team Mine (Selfish Knitters and Crocheters), and if I get both of them done before the games are over (cue laugh track) I'll maybe start something else.
The entrants:
1) Senior Auction Mittens. Entered in Mitten Moguls and Single Skein Speed Skate. The pattern is The "Alice Carroll" All Rib Mitt, and I'm using Plymouth Encore in a gold color. This is my contribution to the mitten, hat, and scarf set that my hall-mates and I entered for the senior auction. I was a bit hesitant about entering this for Team Mine, but the proceeds went to fund Senior Week, which I definitely have a stake in, so that's enough selfish motivation for me.
2) Cthulhu Dice Bag. Entered in Bag Jump and Nordic Colorwork Combined. The pattern is Cthulhu Dice Bag! by A.A. Leavitt-Reynolds, and I'm using some acrylic that I know the black is Red Heart, and I think so for the green too, but I'm not sure. I need something to put my laundry quarters in, and so far all my attempts to knit a coin purse have been unsuccessful. Hopefully this one will actually hold coins and not be the size of a small evening bag.
See everyone at the finish line!
