Monster Pants

So the monster pants are finished! It took me 8 days and I learned at least 8 new things. One of the most important things is that I can make things correctly and finish them. I'm also thankful for my mother-in-law who is an amazing knitter and helped me graft the last stiches together. Now I just need to decide on my next project...

This is my first try at cabel knitting. Wasn't too hard - though they don't really tell you if the yarn is supposed to be in front or back of the stiches. I think I figured out and it looks pretty neat. I have a pattern for mittens that are more advanced that I want to try next.

So as winter approachs I am drinking more hot tea and coffee beverages, so I made this cute coffee cozy from my stash yarn. The pattern was free on Ravelry, but I added the design since I like that sort of thing. Quick 3 hour project...think I'll make a few more.
