Pictures, Primarily Personal

Picasa Web Albums and WordPress no longer talk to each other, so I'm going to inflict pictures of recent knitting projects on this blog. Still nothing particularly business-ish to report, but at least I'm working on something again - for a while after the ACen prep binge I couldn't seem to work on anything.

Here's Elrond being opressed by a pair of cabled gloves I finished a little over a week ago:

I haven't blocked the gloves, which get pulled in by the cabling, so here's one on my hand (although the gloves are too small for me):

Here's a blurry shot of the palm side of the cuff.  These are the "Kingdom" gloves from Knitty.com:

The cuffs are knit back and forth, including a hem facing. Then clever short rows turn the stitching 90 degrees to go around the hand. 

And here's Elrond being opressed by the Christmas stocking I finished before the gloves:

These pictures were taken one morning last week when it was nice and cool, so he's not looking oppressed because knitwear is too warm, just the overwhelming cruelty of being a model.
