Even More Progress...

There has been progress! Here is a photo of my progress on Liesel, the scarf I am donating to a charity auction. I am really happy with how this scarf is coming out. It is my first real forray into lace knitting (well, I suppose the Irish Diamond Shawl really was...but this is an all over pattern and actually has counted stitches on the purl side, so I count this as my first.) I am doing some frogging, I won't lie, but the pattern is interesting enough that I don't get bored and boring enough that I don't kill someone with my needles. The leaves are beautiful and I can't wait to block this to see how much more defined they will be. It is going to a good cause, so I am putting a lot ogf love into this one. Also, below is my updated Christmas knitting list...there have been some finished, some started and some altered projects. All are in order.
