Progress Ladies, progress

The lace scarf is finished, bloked and about to be wrapped up as a christmas present to my DB's Mother. I really hope she'll like it, it took a lot of effort compared to anything else i've knitted before. I didn't manage to get a photo lastnight, (poor quality light) but i'll try to post one up either tonight or tomorrow.

The Sirdar Cardigan is going great too, the back, both fronts and 1 and a 1/2 sleeves are done, just the other half a sleeve and the front ribbing left to do. It's gonna be super soft and with only 500grams of wool, it's only cost £5.70!! I love it when a plan comes together :)

I thought i was so organised for christmas, we bought a DVD Recorder for my mum and dad ( i really wanted to get something special and useful for them.) Until my brother goes and gives them one before we do!!! My brother never gets ANYTHING for them, i can't even remember that last time he did, and the 1 year i can actually afford to give them something nice he bloody spoils it!! So now i've only got today left to get something for them instead! Nevermind.
Hope everyone's not too stressed out at the moment and that you can all enjoy the run up to christmas :)

It looks great! I'm sure you had fun making it, right?

I can't wait to see your jumper.

That sucks about the Christmas present - that's why my brother and I always go in together on the Christmas presents. :)

I hope you can find something nice for them!

Branching Out looks great! I can't belive you are knitting a cardigan for £5.70! That is such a bargain.
