I hope you all had a happy holiday. My strategy of only knitting accessories and small items for gifts worked. I had a relatively stress-free holiday.
Since we last spoke, I've half knit and ripped out two sweaters. In frustration, I've turned to my old friend fuzzy feet and tried a couple of different variations. They are gifts so I can't post pictures until next week.
Last night, while watching the Golden Globes, I knit this:
It's a variation on a web project from Knitscene magazine. Let's face it. I'm much too lazy to spend time on embroidery for a kitchen towel. Thus the adaptation. I really love towels that button for the kitchen. They are hard to find these days. I have a couple that I bought at a church bazaar but they are holiday themed. So I'm pretty darned happy with this. Literally took me one night to make and I've already started another. I used one ball of Sugar 'n Cream in brown and part of another ball in a creamy tweedy sort of color. I think this would be really cute done in white with bright stripes in kind of a diner theme.
Hope you are all well, sorry for my lack of blogging and commenting.

Welcome back! ;)
Love the kitchen towel - might have to try something like that myself...
I do love the quick knits!!! The kitchen towel is a great idea. And you're right...most of the ones you see out there have a holiday theme.
Glad to see you back!
That's some fast knitting! I like the colors you've used.
Welcome back! Quick knits are good. I like the striped kitchen towel.
