I can't believe I did it!
I actually finished 3 projects today!! and one of them I started this morning. I finished my mother's evil shawl, made a whole hat, and finished a neckwarmer for dd. If any of you have kids whos scarves won't stay on it is a great idea. A tube 10" long and 96 st of k2, p2 ribbing. She just scrunches it down on her neck, or over her nose or mouth, around her head or over her ears. It looks so cute too. Now I need to start one for her older sister who decided she had to have one when she saw how cute it was. My only problem now is that I have knitting group tomorrow and nothing started that I can knit and talk with. I really need to get that neckwarmer started in the morning so I have something to take!

The needles were 10s, the yarn worsted acrylic, and the kid 11. I made it 10" on purpose so she could scrunch it down good. I also cast it off in pattern so that the top flared a little so it wouldn't be poking her in the neck. (She just said that it was a neck scrunchie. What a cute name.)

Way to go, Girl! I've had the same darn sock on needles for about two weeks-just no time to knit--I can't image finishing 3 projects in one day.
