Lambs and gloves and scarves- oh my!

This week has been filled with new knitting projects!  It's been great to get back on the needles and knit some new and exciting projects.  First up, a pair of gloves commissioned from a friend for a friend up in Buffalo.  It's probably still cold up there!

Next up is a project I was asked to do awhile ago, but only now have found time to complete it.  This little lamb definitely tested my knitting skills, but I think she came out really cute!

Last up is a skinny scarf that I've been meaning to make awhile, but the weather this week was just calling for it!  I honestly feel naked without a scarf, but it's been a little too warm to wear one of my nice big ones.  This skinny scarf features a 2x2 rib, and it about 6 ft long.  It was a breeze to make too!  I'm definitely going to make more!

Photography has taken over...

As of late, Etsy sales are dwindling, and I've been more occupied with cool photo apps for my phone than FriendlyBrown knits. I'm sure in the coming weeks and months you'll be seeing more photo posts than knitting, but I wanted to dedicate this post to both of my loves. I've been commissioned to make a knitted stuffed lamb as a gift from a colleague of mine. He even supplied the pattern in this amazing book:









It's really great because it has adorable projects with easy to follow instructions, as well as information on how to complete all of the stitches used in the book. Truth be told, this is the first project that I've actually used a pattern this detailed for. There are a lot of stitches that I've only read about before, but I seem to be rockin' out pretty well so far. Wish me luck!








The needles I'm using...
