A Shawl and a Forthcoming Hat

I have clearly been a bad blogger. I've made several gorgeous things lately and shared none of them with you! Tsk. Right now I am in the process of having a hat test knit, and then I will be offering the pattern both here and on Ravelry. I have another two in the works, but they're not ready for prime time yet.

The hat comes in two sizes, but is very stretchy. Both of them actually fit me, and the larger one fits my fiance. I need to do a final photo shoot so I can have a few great pictures of the work, but here's a little preview.

I also finished a gorgeous new shawl out of a smooshy one ply yarn.

I will very shortly have a lovely holiday garland finished, just one more miniature mitten and a few more little Christmas trees. I want to get them done before Thanksgiving, because I always decorate the day after. No Black Friday for me, just Christmas carols, hot tea, and decorating!
