Hi pals! Welcome back to the blog! It’s time for our November 2024 review, our second to last before the end of 2024. Today I am covering everything I worked on, finished, read, and wrote in November. I’m actually surprised at how much I actually did get done, especially when it was a busy as it was.

Everything I Finished
Tunisian Crochet Kindle Bag
This pattern is coming out in January and I am SO freaking excited about it. You’ll need one skein of Lion Brand Mandala Ombre, one Cordsmith Original, and a 6 mm Tunisian crochet hook.
Stuffed Animal Hammock
This was a commission for a sweet friend! I used this pattern, this yarn, these beads, and these wooden rings!
Molly’s Scarf
This was a gift for a coworker who actually gifted me the yarn. If you like it I can write the pattern up!
Nicole’s Beanie
Another design for a coworker, but this one is a commission. I designed it with leftover Starfall from RedDoor and I know the next time she releases this yarn I am buying a sweaters worth.
Secret Commission Part 1
This is actually 2 commissions in one, but I can’t talk about them yet.
Pink Beaded Hedgehog
Just a cute little pal for my daughter. I have a few in my shop too!
Everything I Worked On
Birthday Sweater
I started working on this sweater at the beginning of the month with the hopes that I can finish it by my birthday in January. It’s made up entirely of scrap yarn, a mixture of sock yarns and mohairs and cashmeres and I am just working two strands held together and swapping out one color at a time. I think its coming along awesome. This is the pattern I am using.
Mohair Sweater
I started this sweater about a year and a half ago (ok probably longer) and I kinda forgot where I was so I just didn’t want to mess with it for a bit. Fast forward to last weekend and I just sat down, grabbed my stitch markers, and started counting. It took me 15 freaking minutes and I was back on track. Remind me next time to just do the thing, it’s gonna be fine. I’m using this pattern for this one. It’s a single strand of mohair with 4.5 mm needles and I adore it.
Jenny’s Shawl
This is technically a secret project, but it’s something I am working on for a friend, but also for Hobbii, but also for you. Announcement in January. <3
Stream Blanket
I’ve talked about this a few times, but this is my stream blanket! I still have 10 rows to go, and I doubt I make it by the December 22 deadline, but it’s coming along and I am quite proud of it so far!
Sunset Fiber Co Beanie
Another future design, but this one is coming out in two weeks! I have a tutorial for the stich pattern coming out next weekend though, so make sure you get your order of Sunset Fiber in now so you’ve got it in time. You either need 3 skeins in 3 different colors to match the sample, or 2 skeins of the same. Obviously you won’t use it all for one, but you will be able to make 2-3 beanies with it!
Sock
Oh you know, it can’t be a recap without a sock. This one is my last “I’m so Basic” sock for a bit, because this person is getting in some really special yarn next week and I am casting on my first pattern with texture! I have it narrowed down to about 4, but i’ve got time.
