for my friend, francine, i knit a cute pug. the pattern is wasabi, the gregarious pug by dangercrafts. here is the ravelry link
i like his curly tail.
for her husband, ed, i made a pair of fingerless gloves. it looks like they changed the pattern a bit since i used it.
i knit these two at a time on two circular needles. i like to do that for a couple of reasons. first, when you're done, you're done. no need to make another. and second, if you add a row here or there, you do it symmetrically. there are a lot of beautiful fingerless glove patterns on ravelry. i'll definitely be making more.
and if you're not familiar with ravelry, it's a knitting community. if you're a knitter, you should definitely join. it has patterns, designers, forums. you can keep track of your projects, stash, needles and books. i love it.
I've been knitting wristwarmers 2-at-a-time, too. I think it's a great idea! Cute pug :-)
