FO's - Baby dress and Column of Leaves Scarf
The baby dress for my granddaughter is done - finally! It will be her Christmas present. The pattern was Judy Lamb's Baby Dress / Christening Gown and I knit it in Jaeger Sienna (Lavender). It was very challenging, and there are lots of little mistakes in it, but the pattern is so busy that I doubt anyone will ever notice!

I also finished my mother's Christmas present - The Column of Leaves scarf in Cascade Quattro. Blocking made a HUGE difference with this scarf - I wish I had taken a picture of it before blocking for comparison.
