I am going to give away a prize for the "guessing" contest I talked about. The one on "what could I possibly be knitting" out of left-over wool. I was going to give another hint, but ...
I have a winner ... Sandy from sunny California. She was half right and that makes her close enough; she commented
"....could it possibly be a cup/glass cozy with a place mat or hot pad to set the glasses on?"
from Knitting Pattern a Day Calendar 2009
The Coffee/Tea Press I have is a small one. Just a two cupper. So I might cut the cozy a little more down to size. I also have it tied with yarn scraps for right now but I'm planning to put snaps on. Well once I decide it's for this press and not a larger one. Mmmmmm, maybe I can use two snaps and make it for both sizes. I'll think on that.
But the cup/glass cozies are my favorites. I plan to give a few away as gifts.
I've also finished a shower gift ... a wedding garter. [a very productive weekend to say the least.] Hope she considers it an heirloom. I ended out hand sewing the bias tape & elastic in.
Oh ya, I also finished an ongoing project that's been sitting in my WIP basket. One that felt like it would take "forever" ... but the yarn ran out finally and I'm finally DONE!
