Snow!!!
A pretty snowflake on my jacket!
And when I came home later on, I figured out the ornament I've been trying to make. The pattern I was following is here, however, it wouldn't really cooperate with me, so I frogged it twice and made up my own instructions. For those who doesn't have Ravelry access yet, here is the instructions again:
Pattern - Knitted Christmas Ornament Covers by Judy Sumner
Yarn Called For - Small amonts of yarn, either sport or worsted/bulky weight
Yarn Used - Small amounts of Manos del Uruguay in #100
Needles - Harmony size 7
Gauge - N/A
Knit - December 02, 2007 (in couple of hours)
Modifications:

Modifications:
- Cast on 12 sts using your favorite knitting in the round method - I used magic loop.
- Join the ends and knit the first round.
- Rnd 2: *yo, k1* - resulting 24 sts.
- Rnd 3: Knit
- Rnd 4: *yo, k1* - resulting 48 sts.
- Rnd 5: Knit
- Rnd 6: *yo, k2tog*
- Repeat Rnd 5 and 6 until work measures 2 inches from the center and ends on a knit round.
- K2tog all the way around - resulting 24 sts.
- Knit
- *yo, k2tog*
- Knit
- Repeat item 9 to 12 again resulting 12 sts.
- Insert the ornament (mine is 3 1/4" diameter)
- Use tubular bind off.
Weave in the ends on both sides and pull tight to close the bottom hole or you can leave it loose as a decorations. Viola!
