Knit Knacks

I have had more time on my hands lately... which means more time for knitting! I just thought I would put up some pictures of recent knits for the fam/friends that have been asking for pics.

 I finished these beauties back in February, but I am very proud of them so I had to post another picture!

 This stitch is called the Daisy Stitch - VERY cute!

Beary is sporting this manly neckwarmer I made for Elder Zach Morris per his request

It even has a hidden button!

Here is a closer look at the stitching, this is the first cabled project I have done and I did the cabling without a cable/dpn needle. It took me a while to make, but definitely expanded my knitting capabilities.

 This cute little hat was made for a friend's cute baby girl.
 
And this adorable hat was made for a beautiful baby girl of another friend of mine. I wish I made it bigger... I would totally wear this!

And that is all the knitted items I have created lately. I want to knit Christmas stockings for  Brad and I, but the more I look into them, the more I realize I won't be done by Christmas. Why? Because I am choosing to make them more complicated than they need to be.... but I will be learning more! I will finish them by NEXT Christmas for sure!

Those turned out great, Jessica! You're so talented. I'll have to have you teach me how to knit someday.
