those darn elves

I just can't seem to stop making these blasted elves. I refused to put myself into a 'must knit' situation and would not even consider gifting any of them. well, I relented.
I decided to use up the rest of the worsted weight yarn that I originally purchased for them. Then I had to make 'just one more'.......
This is the current batch. There is one missing from the photo (it's living in my honey's office). And there is the one that is currently on my needles. Several are being gifted and the remainder will be the hearth decoration. I've got to get another knitting project!
so about the weaving......
amythefibergoddess to the rescue. Not only could she identify the yarn, she even had some left. I came right home and with a bit of help....
got back into the groove. my little fiber pup was under my feet as I was balling the skein and wrapping the shuttle. I kept dropping it or the ball of yarn on her and she would not leave her warm, snuggly pad. I hope to get this scarf done. it seems the more I work on it, the longer it gets. With the holiday approaching I promised to make some space and get this loom out. I may be working on this until the new year.
