MOM Monday
I finally finished another piece for my mom's Knitivity set over the weekend. This time, it was an animal: an ox. I had some difficulty with the pattern on this one, but I made it work. My mom is really happy with it, and that's what counts!

FO Friday!
I have a bunch of FOs to share this week for FO Friday!
I knit this bear for the Mother Bear Project during the Ravellenic Games. I really enjoyed knitting it, and what a warm fuzzy feeling to know that it will brighten the life of a child in need!
Also during the Ravellenic Games, I made this Turn a Square Hat for TMG. He chose the yarn (Lorna's Laces Shepherd Worsted Multi) when we were at WEBS this summer. I have half the skein left over for another project, maybe a coordinating neck warmer.
Finally, I am very excited to have finished the Freyja Hat. I have had this on my "to-make" list for three years, and finally got up the courage to tackle the colorwork. I am so happy with the final result!

Thursday Hexipuff Update
It is my goal to update the blog with a running total of my Hexipuff
count each Thursday. I'm aiming to complete my Beekeeper's Quilt (a
total of approximately 384 puffs) by the end of 2012.
Today's Tally:
As of this posting, I have completed a total of 251 hexipuffs! Only 133 more to go!
It has been a great feeling to be back on pace and I've been working hard to keep it up this week. I passed the 250 puff mark this morning which is another nice milestone.

Thursday Hexipuff Update: All Caught Up!
It is my goal to update the blog with a running total of my Hexipuff
count each Thursday. I'm aiming to complete my Beekeeper's Quilt (a
total of approximately 384 puffs) by the end of 2012.
Today's Tally:
As of this posting, I have completed a total of 244 hexipuffs! Only 140 more to go!
It's been a few weeks since the last update, because I've been knitting hexipuffs instead of typing blog entries! I participated in the 2012 Ravellenic Games on Ravelry and one of my events was the Modular Relay, in which I aimed to complete 28 hexipuffs during the 17-day event. I set this goal because that put me back on track for the year, after having fallen behind. I succeeded, and completed all 28 puffs, as well as a few other project. Here's a picture of my 28 "Ravellenic Puffs":

By completing the puffs, I earned a medal in the Modular Relay event! I'm so proud!
Finally, here's a picture of what 244 hexipuffs look like. Puffy is in there somewhere...
