I got my mom learning-to-knit for Christmas - 2 sets of needles, 4 skeins of yarn, and this pattern, because it involves:
* only knit stitches, no purl
* color changes
* increases
* decreases

(Mom & Dad have a long long flight to New Zealand ahead of them in January; I thought she'd best be prepared).

Of course, if I'm going to go drive up to Rochester & show my mom how to knit, I probably ought to have knitted in the last year or two, no? And it's been a while.

I might do another kerchief, like this or this. Don't need a hat, maybe I'll work on the Shahin Wristies I've been thinking about for 100 years.

Maybe I'll just dump all my yarn on the living room floor and see what jumps out. What do you think?

I think you should make a sweater for Merit.

Not if you have a cat!
