I made these three pair of mitts for the NaKniMitMo knitalong on Ravelry. They were a lot of fun (so quick!) and were also stashbusting projects.
My favorite project for January was the Flower Basket Shawl.

I discovered that I love knitting lace with sport/dk weight yarn and large needles. It goes very quickly, and I didn't need to put in a lifeline. I really enjoy wearing this shawl and can't wait to cast on for my next one - the Shetland Triangle.

those evangeline warmers are so pretty. Isn't cascade 220 great? It comes in so many colors and 220 yards goes a long way.
Your scarf is beautiful...I think next year might be my year for lace knitting (I've got to conquer the colorwork first)
Wow you have been busy. I love all your projects. I'm especially fond of the red fingerless mittens. (I love red, and the interesting pattern). And the flower basket shawl is beautiful. A perfect accessory for this chilly weather.
Some beautiful knits! Great job!! Is the sweater you're wearing hand knit, too? It's really cute.
Oh, your Mittens are beautiful! I'm so inspired to knit a pair myself. Evangeline and Toasty are my favourites!
Oh my goodness! You've had a prductive month. Love it all!
Those mitts are so cute! So impressive. I wish I had your talent.
Holy Moly! You cranked out so much knitting. I am impressed. I love every one of them.
I nominated you for an award- look at my blog.
