Where does time go?

Have had a crazy few weeks. Had a health scare that turned out okay but was blue for a couple of weeks and focused on projects that had to be done--socks, prayer shawl and Christmas gifts. I have finished a few things since last posting. This is a hairdryer dishcloth designed by Lisa Millan (www.digknittydesigns.blogspot.com). It's made of Bernat Handicrafter.
This is also a Lisa Millan design and is a curling iron in Bernat Handicrafter cotton. Both of these are gifts.
This is Eva Hat from SnB 2007 Desk Calendar. The white yarn is TLC Amore, and the red is Caron Simply Soft. This is for Tristan.
Another version of Eva Hat in Caron Simply Soft. This is a gift.
This is monthly bookmark group KAL. It is called Pine Tree Bookmark and designed by my cyber-friend, Annette (www.annette2u.blogspot.com). She won the group's design contest. It's made on size 1 needles with #10 crochet cotton.
Frog bath puppets above and below are designed by another cyberfriend, Brian McGaunn (www.brileyknits.blogspot.com). They're gifts for a couple of kids I know along with some kid-scented goat's milk soap in the shape of a frog. They're made with Sugar n Cream. Brian has several other free puppet patterns.

Since I last posted, I received my Ravelry invite. My id there is Knitter4Him. I'm gradually getting my projects loaded.
On the needles, a white baby afghan (prayer shawl), nativity washcloth, and my Dublin Bay socks. All of these will be finished by end of the week. Future projects are a twisted little sock (the knitter sock of the month club selection), more nativity cloths and a prayer shawl based on Elizabeth Zimmerman's Pi for my friend Julie. Since Julie is from UK, I thought an EZ design appropriate.
Grace and peace to you all.

Timmie, the new stuff looks great (I love Lisa's dishcloths!) and I can't wait to see the Pi!
