I have been very productive this weekend! I finished two projects, the Danica scarf and the String bag, both relatively new projects, meaning they have not waited on the needled months and months. I am pretty proud of myself how they turned out, and that I actually finished (finished! Like darning in the ends and all!) two projects in a weekend.
This weekend I finished my third stash busting scarf, knit from one end to the other with big needles and funky yarns:
I am one for many projects on the go, so I decided to start the string bag. I decided to use some old cotton I got from Lidl at the beginning of my knitting career. Here's the humble beginnings.
Worsted Knitt proudly presents - Finished Objects! Quite often I tend to have a million things on the needles at once, and then finish them all at once.

Here's the French Market Bag from Knitty, done with Cortina yarn and 10 mm needles.
I was looking trough my knitting box, and other places where I keep my knitting, and found some projects that have been "sleeping" for some while. And some projects I am working on this moment. More photos you'll find in Flickr.

See, I made it!
Knitted from acrylic but pretty nice yarn, with 5mm needles, exactly according to the instructions (and of course without gauge swatching - it ended up bigger than the original).
I also knitted the side in a lighter colour, and added some basic cabling.
My new job started last tuesday, and now I have to commute at the rush hour. It’s not far, but it’s still a 30 minutes spent in a glorious Dublin Bus. I decided that I need to get my yarn out of the closet and start knitting in public.
