On The Hook

What's currently on our hooks? Quite a bit, actually.

As a serial knitter, the one thing I cannot do is work on projects one at a time. New patterns are exciting; if I waited to start new projects until I had finished all of my current ones, I'd be waiting for years.

So here's a look into what I've been working on this week!

1. Llamas

Llamas? Yes. Llamas.

It's super cute and it's half-finished.

I couldn't resist. The pattern was too cute not to start immediately. The head and body have been attached and stuffed. The legs and ears and tail have been crocheted. Now they all just need to come together!

2. Jack O' Lanterns

This one's been on my needles for years, and this fall it's time to get it done. He's all in pieces, and even those are incomplete, but he'll come along, he'll come along.

3. Fingerless Gloves

Fall is coming. It's possibly already here. I'm not sure when fall starts. I'm personally a fan of fall getting underway September 1st, so I'm breaking out my dpns and fall colors and getting started on a pair of gloves. I've done these gloves before, several times, but prior to this I've been using 5mm needles and this round I'm switching to 3.75mm. The 5mm's have resulted in somewhat chunkier gloves (to be expected, considering the pattern calls for 4mm), so I'm interested in seeing how this pair turns out, especially being slightly smaller than the recommended size.

What's on your hook this fall? Tell us in the comments!
