I finished my Owl hat from Ravelry (the Who? hat) and loved knitting this one. I added eyes to every other owl and I had 10 owls in total. I used a stash skein of Lion Brand and the end result is fine, but I recommend knitting in a yarn with more wool!
...the life of a girl infatuated with wool, knitting, spinning....and the world's slowest sock knitter. Oh yeah, and all things made of cake!

Quick knit gifts are wonderful
I love free patterns and I love quick knit patterns that are free :) I finished up a 3-hour cowl for my sister-in-law and will pop it into the mail tomorrow. I hope she likes it, fingers crossed. I used Lion Brand Homespun I had in the stash, but could not find the colorway name/number. It knit up nice and soft and squishy.
And just as awesome as free patterns are zombie cups :) My niece and nephew gave me this for Christmas and I LOVE it so much! Already had coffee in it this morning and now my favorite cup of all time.

Fiber love
I finally took pictures of the Bohemia Fibers roving of the month October fiber that I spun and 2 plied.
I love her fibers, she does a beautiful job on her products and I highly recommend you give her a try if you are in the market for yarn or roving.
