Booty Club and Knitting update

OMG! I did it, I joined the Booty Club just a second ago (3-month-subscription). It's a little Christmas gift to me, for the work for my etsy shop and my diploma thesis I hopefully finish at the end of the year. Can't wait to receive the first package in mid January!

So the last couple of days I finished some WIPs:

The Huckleberry Ascot (Interweave Knits Issue Holidays 2007) for my sister for Christmas

Matching Periwinkle Beret out of the same yarn

The Galaxy Socks for my cop

and started new ones, with the gorgeous yarn from my SP11 Sandy who also has an etsy-shop

They are in simple 4st/5row basket weave pattern, but I love them!

I finished the father socks, but they turned out way too big, maybe I rip 'em out or sell them on etsy.

This is all I have done, so here are my WIPs:

The Rebecca Sweater

the arms have to be knitted

Another yoga mat bag (from The Happy Hooker)

And because my cop was asked to be the godfather of a newborn in February, I decided to crochet a blanket for the baby, the Starry, Starry Night. It gets up fast and I love the pattern. I had troubles with the beginning, but this tutorial made it easy for me to understand.

Ok, I think this is enough. I'm glad I'm done with all the christmas knitting and enjoy the last days of my diploma thesis *haha*

Happy Holidays everyone!
