Armwarmers, scarf and hat in wool.

I have made my first ever knitted set! I knitted arm warmers, a scarf and a hat of wool. The colours are black and a sort of red orange.





I started making the arm warmers, as I knew the person they were intended for needed a pair to use when out photographing in the cold. I made a "hole" for the thumbs, which I think was a good idea.





The scarf was knitted while I was in London during the Christmas days. (I probably should write an entry about knitting in London, but that'll have to wait). Same yarn and method, more or less. I wanted it to be long enough to be properly worn. ;)





The hat was still the same yarn and all that jazz... I stated knitting it when I came home after work on Thursday, and ended up knitting the rest of it during the reading group meeting the very same day. It was all done before I went to bed, so I was able to hand it over yesterday. The other two items were handed over on New Year's Eve, the very same day the person I made it for had his birthday.

Yes, this set was a birthday gift. The hat came as a gift card, but as I just said: handed over yesterday. The birthday boy was very pleased and happy about the gift!

Red woolen scarf.

I made this red woolen scarf from the yarn I bought at "This is Kint" in Ireland. I'm almost looking forward for winter, when I will be able to use it.
