The Bohemian Dessert Scarf is finito! Finished it up tonight whilst reading KnitTalk back-posts, and it's purty! 64" long x 12" wide should keep me plenty warm this winter. The colour doesn't show so well in the picture, but it's purty, anyway.
Now Mom wants hers started right away (of course) - not happening! Got too many other projects to get done without starting in another biggie (mine took three skeins, hers will probably take four... and that Bohemian is FAT yarn!)
Ah well, another job well done (yes, I need to weave in the tails, I know). And Kim and Debbie both LOVED their hats (JOY!), and Sharon wants one the same as Debbie's, so that will start in a few days - need a break from the round-n-round for a bit.
Tonight (during precious Red Wings hockey time, of course) I will finish Ravenclaw and cast on for Slytherin - back on schedule, dagnabit! Well, there's only about 40 rows of Ravenclaw to go, and it's quick once I get a rhythm going. I will finish these scarves, present them to my dear friends, and never ever ever knit them again. No, really. I've discovered that although Lion Brand Wool-Ease (worsted weight) comes in pretty colours, it's not that nice to knit with. Plus these scarves are, to be blunt, boring. CO 27 stitches, knit 50 rows stockinette, change colours, knit 50 rows stockinette, change back, etc. etc. etc.... blech. But I love my friends. :)
