New projects

Is it because it is the end of the year that I feel the need to start new projects? I don't know, but I think I just go with the flow and let it happen.
Last week's projects is gone. I rippes it, after starting over at the same point three times. I don't know if it's me or the chart, but when I found myself on the couch saying some ugly words I decided to rip it and start something new. So I casted on Renee Leverington's Winter Mystery Shawl and knitted the first clue.

Another new project is a shawl, knitted from the yarn DD brought home with her after her trip to the USA.  I name it New York City Found, the pattern is Myruni

Today was the first day of my vacation. We stay at home for the holidays and I refurnished our living room into a sewing studio. And so I could cut fabric into a jellyroll and make the top of a New York Quilt. I plan to make two of them, one for me, one for DD. 

Everything we experienced in NY is there. The green of Central Park, the huge buildings, the clock of Grand Central Station, the lights of Times Square, the traffic, the Stars and Stripes.  And sweet memories, of course...
