KAL/CALs: 
Fire and Blood (5/4/14) - not anytime soon
Outlander MKAL (8/8/14)  - possibility of finishing this..the yarn is so yummy

My first finish is my Stripey Goodness fingerless mitts.  I started these in 2015!!!!  So no pattern, I just k2p2 around....The yarn was a kit from Quaere Fibre and The Purple Purl.  The color is called Modern Christmas.  There is actually enough left for me to make a pair of socks too....I had to fix the Ravelry page, as the wrong yarn was listed.  


I just started this this past week......well I actually cast on awhile ago...I pulled it out of the bag and there were some cast-on stitches....The hat is Put a Pom On It by Nancy Ricci...it's a free pattern...The yarn is Dragonfly Fibers Super Traveller in Stone Circle.  I actually have two other skeins, that I'll be making a cowl with, they are the grey and the copper color in this colorway.

So I took back two project bags and a couple of sets of needles.  I'm really trying to clean up some WIPs...some are not even on my list.

I have 5 days for Thanksgiving and we tend not to go anywhere on a good year, so I'll have more time to craft

I also made some last minute Halloween jewelry.  I ended up channeling Charlotte from Charlotte's Web for my "costume.".  


My completed Hexed Halloween Calendar....I loved this so much, I plan on buying another next year.  It was by TeenyButton Studio....all the colors were fabulous!

So that is it for me this week....I do have a couple of short daily videos posted of opening the calendar, but not longer vlog this week...

I'll catch you all next week....Oh I tested negative....and am going back to work on Monday...even with the negative test, I had to stay out for 14 days.....this month is a short month for us....only one week is a full 5 day week of school....

So glad you were negative. Yet those 14 days off gave you some lovely crafting time. Your mitts and hat are very pretty.

Glad to hear of the negative test. That jewellery is great! You have been busy, and I love the colour of your Halloween/October kit - so autumnal!
