Looming deadlines


For a knitter that doesn't usually have knitting deadlines, I have had a lot of them lately. The Duchess Shawl fell short. And yet, I immediately jumped into another one with the Hunting Convertible mittens. Then, just for giggles, I threw in another one in the middle of things.



I decided that Bugaboo would make a perfect Harry Potter for Halloween, and you can't have that without a Gyffindor scarf, of course. At least I was smart enough not to do it in fingering.






I was sewing the cloak and finishing the fringe on the night before, but I got it done in time.










So now I am back to the Hunting mittens. I have just started on the thumb increases











Today, it is all about the deadlines.
