Given that yesterday was the official first day of spring, I thought that time might be running out to share some of my winter knitting projects. My mom gave me "More Last-Minute Knitted Gifts" by Joelle Hoverson for Christmas, and now I pretty much never sit without knitting. My husband was also pleased with the Christmas present not only because he is the beneficiary of many fine knitted gifts, but now I also don't nag as much if he watches TV, since now I can feel productive at the same time. So, before winter completely slips away, here are a few of my cozy projects: reusable coffee cup sleeves, lace scarf, and a ribbed hat.
