Whatcha knitting/crocheting for Christmas? Thread

[TheFurryMenace]

Here's my first FO:

Scarf in super soft (but super shreddy!) Debbie bliss Roma, for my lovley SIL. Hope she likes it, and can live with the shredding! Planning to do another scarf with this yarn in Teal, as already had the yarn, no recipient as yet. Making a wrap, and may make a little something for DD time permitting.

What's on your needles/hook?

Oops - wrong photo - apologies for scary, headless dachshund!

This is the patter i used. However I used Robin Super chunky (instead of dk) instead and reduced from 120 stitches to 90. That still comes out huge. It fits my DS who is 20, 6ft and 38 inch chest. I would probable make it an inch or so longer for my ds. It was enormous on DD who is a size 8 but it was only meant for lounging around in.

Ohhh Bruffin - you star! Thank You!

Also didnt do the fold over collar as it was too thick.

And added the extra rows of contrast colour at the bottom.

Not for Christmas, but I'm doing a corner-to-corner for a friend's baby, due in February. I've only got about another 10 rows to do. The photo was taken last week.

I love everyone else's projects. I enjoy looking a pretty photos almost as much as I enjoy actually making things.
