Sigrid sent me this picture (left) of the stockings I made for her hanging on their fireplace for Christmas--I really love the colors she chose and how they are so well-coordinated. It inspired me to re-make ours in coordinating colors. I've done the two pictured here (above, in red and cream) so far. The two on the outside hanging by the fireplace pictured below are from our original set. I need a break from knitting stockings, so I'll wait until next year to re-do those. The wool is Lamb's Pride, worsted weight.
In other knitting news, I completed the pullover below; the yarn is "Knit One Crochet Too Ty-Dy," a 100% wool worsted weight, and the pattern is by Helen Rush, "Running Circles." It's knitted in one piece, from the top down.
And a while back I finished my first-ever lace socks! The yarn is a wool blend fingering weight sock yarn that I purchased while still in Munich (didn't remember to note the name).
Finally, here are a couple of pictures of a quilt I finished some time ago. I did the cutting, piecing and sewing, but it was quilted professionally by a machine quilter. The photo on the right shows the elaborate, beautiful quilting that really made the quilt.
