Knitting projects

I thought that while I was here, I would put up some pics of my other knitting projects.

This first one is a more detailed view of the green vest in my last post, the one that came out too big....

Above: The completed vest, sewn together at the sides, over a pillow to show the shape

The second one is a cowl-neck shawl that is on the back-burner at the moment. The pattern said to use any stitch, so i've gone with a unique ribbing pattern - i'm not sure how it works, but it looks good!

Above: The shawl so far, knit on circular needles because there are so many stitches!
