Christmas may be behind us but winter's not over by a long shot out here in the mountains! Which means nice cosy afternoons by the fire and I was looking for a nice pattern for a scarf I wanted to knit for my mum. Something with cables, but also something I could knit without too many markers and difficult twists&turns. Or light for that matter, because we run on solar energy here way up in La Alpujarra and when there's no sun, like today, there's not a lot of energy either! After scouring the web, i found lots and lots of lovely patterns I hope to try, one day, but I couldn't find a nice 'n easy cable scarf. So here's my own: Liz's EAZY Cable Scarf for Cosy Winter Afternoons by the Fire.

I read Britney Spears is planing to give up nail biting in 2009. Once I started looking for it, I noticed that it's almost impossible to find a pic of Britney's nails! So I just picked one of her looking sweet. After all the terrible shots of her earlier this year, I guess she's ready to start afresh, and will a full head of hair! Made me think though, about new year's resolutions. I never really make any other than 'have more fun' I had this friend who always planned to 'drink more'. I like that, among all those folks trying to quit smoking (gave up 7 years ago) or lose weight (I'm quite happy about the way I look). Still, it's a good idea to make a plan. Most of the ones I came up with semed to have something t do with knitting though. How crazy is that?

I've tried the Kitchener Stitch. It's ok, but to be honest, I thought it was a bit messy. If you don't have any equipment such as tapestry needles and/or no patience and/or no talent, this might work for you: My Mum's Stitch! My mum learned this in school as a tiny girl with lovely blond curls, knitting under the beady eye of her horrible teacher. Teach did a good job though, because my mum can still remember!Here's what you do: make sure you have decreased the toe as far as you want and you're ready to start grafting.

I've been experimenting with Christmas (and other) presents that I might knit and I am ridiculously satisfied with the results! Both these Ipod socks were knitted on circulars. The bigger one is my own pattern, I thought it might be fun to have a little flap. It needs a button, but I don't have one, and it'll take a week or so to get them in the mail, so bear with me! Here's what I did for the Ipod sock with flap:
