November Recap

 Wow, November sure went by fast! I was able to finish off some long-term projects, so it's nice to get some things accomplished from the WIP (work-in-progress) bin. 

I finished this really cool tartan hat. I had some leftover warp after my tartan table runner from last month, so I made a bit more cloth, sewed it into a folded-over square, and then picked up and knit a brim to make a neat hat. 


I made this amazing Advent calendar for my little one from a tutorial I saw on thehousethatlarsbuilt.com, which was an easy (though time-consuming, since I cut every by hand) papercraft. 


I finished these lace gloves that I've been working on for a couple months. They're so fancy I'm not quite sure what I'll wear them for, but in the past I've wished I had a pair for a fancy bridal shower and a 20s-themed wedding, so I'm sure I'll get some use out of them once we can all go about and do things again. 


And that's it for FOs, folks! Well, I finished a cross stitch project for a friend for Christmas, but if I post a picture it will probably give away who it is for, so I'm keeping it secret for now. I'll share it after Christmas. :-) 

It was a busy month! Here are some WIPs I've got going now:

This brioche cowl:


This tasseled pillow, which is currently a pillow that I sewed and a pile of tassels that need sewn on:


And I'm also working on sewing up some scrunchies (hair ties) to match some of my masks. Why not be matchy-matchy? :-)


That's it for now! Tune in at the start of each month to see my newest FOs, although with my current weaving challenge (see this post), you'll probably see a few weaving FOs throughout this month.
