I’m a bit annoyed because I had this post written two days ago, and now it’s Wednesday and WordPress seems to have lost it so I have to rush and write it up again.
I know this isn’t really a WIP, but they’re too small for me to put up on Friday since I usually save that for big projects, so here’s all the goodies my coworkers got for Halloween.
Originally that was going to be the only thing here, but I had a vet appointment yesterday and needed something smaller to take with me than a shawl or a skirt, so I cast on a new project for the Miters KAL that CPY is doing. It is the Baby Dragon Scarf and it is using a skein of Panda Superwash of what I think is a unique test-color that I won from one of their other KALS.
I initially thought it wouldn’t work well, but it seems to be striping nicely, so yay! I won a second colorway from them – Blueberry Pancakes – but I don’t think that one would work as well with this scarf.
For more works in progress, check out Tami’s Amis WIP Wednesday post for this week!

The scarf is going to be lovely. I love the yarn you’re using.
You are a kind co-worker to gift those lovelies. My daughter would go crazy for the ghosts. She is a huge Pacman fan.

I’m impressed that gave your co-workers Halloween presents. Admit it, you just really wanted to make the Pacman ghosts and then needed somewhere to put them!

Nope. I have a history of making little things for coworkers. I had wanted to give them all cthulhus this year but I didn’t have enough time or safety eyes, so I had to search around for a good alternative. :)

As far as I’m concerned, you could have used the ghosts for Squee Sunday, too!! SQUEEEEE!!!!
Glad the colors in your scarf are working out well!

Lucky coworkers! They’re all so cute!
The mitred scarf looks very nice so far – I love that it’s so open and lacy!

Your little monsters are so cute! I bet your co-workers loved them. The Baby Dragon Scarf looks really cool and different, I love the colours and I can’t wait to see it finished.
