Knitting: Fingerless Gloves
Snug-fitting mitts without any of that loose, bunchy fabric between fingers and thumb. The thumb gusset is a little more elegant than the standard one, with the increases neatly integrated into the ribbing.
Knitting: Slippers
Felted ballet flats. Knit in one piece with minimal seaming.
Knitting: Drawstring Bag
I invented and knitted this during one or two role-playing sessions. I wanted a zig-zag pattern to bring out the stripes, and after binding off, the four points and the pretty Noro colourway created a somewhat organic, deep-sea flower-like shape.
