These were actually finished&#8230;um&#8230;a week and a half ago&#8230;but between the toddler, the musicals, the never-ending battle I wage against laundry, dishes, dog fur and clutter, and just a general lack of free time, I haven&#8217;t had a chance to post about them.  Having said that, I really liked this pattern.  It was interesting and complex, but I found it to be a fairly quick knit.  I even managed to work on them during bits and snatches of rehearsals where I knew I wouldn&#8217;t be playing for a while.  They also fit really nicely, no sagging or bunching.

(I cheated and started it last month, but who cares?)  It doesn&#8217;t have a face yet, because the black yarn I need is trapped in my craft room behind half of our bedroom furniture.
