Since I’ve been in such a funk in regards to knitting, I’ve been doing a lot of spinning.\u00a0 Yesterday my driveband broke on my wheel, so I have to grab some more cotton and make a new one.\u00a0 Since I’m so incredibly lazy, I decided to knit instead.<\/p>\n

I had originally planned on knitting the Fiddlehead Mittens<\/a> for my downstream Loopy Swap 5 partner, but after trying a couple of color combos, nothing made me happy.\u00a0 I’ve decided on something new, but it’s with a totally different weight and color layout of yarn, so I had 3 skeins of sportweight already caked and needing to be used.\u00a0\u00a0 So…I decided to whip out a La Novia<\/a> by Anne Hanson.\u00a0 I used a skein of Yoyo Cashsport<\/a> in Purple People Eater colorway, and two days later, it’s done!<\/p>\n

I’m pretty happy with it, and that’s one Xmas gift down!<\/p>\n

Typically if I’m knitting, I’m sitting my the loveseat in the living room, in my little “nook”.\u00a0 I thought I’d give you guys a little insight to my “worktable” – I resisted the urge to clean it before taking a photo.<\/p>\n

Who doesn’t<\/strong> need candy corn to work, I ask?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Also in the photo is my notions bag (pink), my interchangeable needle case (blue patterned bag), “Good Luck Chuck” from Netflix (surprisingly funny!), La Novia pattern, and my stitchmarker tin.<\/p>\n

Your turn – what’s in your “nook”?<\/p>\n

I’ll close with a photo of my gap toothed son – who has been waiting for a new tooth to come in for a couple of months now….<\/p>\n
