Success! Wristers-A-Plenty, first dpns project!
More adventures in newbie knitting! I started these last week in a different yarn, didn't like them, tossed the first one and started over in Caron Simply Soft (grey heather) last Friday night. I finished BO about 1.5 hours after the Superbowl ended on Sunday. Woo hoo!!!



The unhappy-looking cat is our beloved Spike. He's 8 years old. When we found him in a field, alone and scared, in July of 2000, he could fit in the palm of my hand.

Congrats! They look great...and your model there is cute too - although that's about as excited as cats get as models from what I can tell. Mine just look ticked off...

great job!

Great job! now you have to make a hat and scarf to go with!
Mulder is never a very excited model. Though he does like to lay on the project!
