This one is for me
In the mist of mad holiday gifts knitting, I did finished something for me a while ago:
Yarn: Opulencia by Artesano
Ravelry project page: here
It is the ascot version of my Little Scarf (meaning that I stopped knitting after I finished the first ball of yarn.) I am thinking matching half mittens with the second ball.
I am extremely pleased on how it matches my new bag:

I am easily amused
This really makes me happy:
Pattern:One-Piece Baby Kimono by Cristina Bernardi Shiffman from Mason-Dixon Knitting
Yarn: Superwash Merino by Tess' Designer Yarns
Ravelry project page: here
Why? Because I used all the leftover yarn I had of the Tess' Superwash. All. Of. It. This was a huge skein of yarn, 560 yards. I used half of it a while ago to make this for my niece, back in 2007, and the rest of it has been marinating in my stash. Now it is gone.
