These were actually finished the last day of September. However I needed someone to take pictures so they had to wait until today.
Yesterday I called in sick. I had actually made it half way to work before feeling so nauseous that I had to pull over. Fun times.
As soon as I got home I pulled the covers back over my head and slept until 11. After that the day was a blur of napping on the couch with two blankets (even though the AC was set to 80) and knitting while the tv was on in the background.
Oh see the progress that was made!
Yesterday at work was just one of those days where the temperature was cold enough to make one miserable, but not cold enough to wear my jacket properly. (Meaning that I ended up wearing it backwards with only my arms in the sleeves). This got me thinking that what I needed was some wrist warmers that covered my lower arms and most of my hands, so I did a search of Ravelry and found this pattern.
Indeed I spent the rest of my workday trying to remember if I had some leftover Lion's Brand Wool from a scarf that I had made long ago to construct the wrist warmers from. Once home I rushed to my "Crappy Yarn Bin" (while not any of it is actually crappy, it's just what it's been dubbed), to rifle through with my fingers crossed, which was extremely difficult.
I discovered a whole ball of Lion's Brand Wool, worsted weight in the same color as my scarf! (I had purchased it because I thought it was the same weight as my scarf. This was before I realized that Lion Brand has a worsted weight and an aran weight.) Needles were found and the new project was cast on!
