Marion and Marian show off.

One of the great joys of knitting, besides knitting itself, is seeing what other people are knitting. It's a large part of why Ravelry exists, and it's one of my favorite parts of my job at the Hillsborough Yarn Shop. Not only do I get in on the knitting plans as they're being made, but I also often see the finished product, proudly brought in to show off. I always get to ooh and ahh, and touch the finished sweaters, scarves, and hats. Sometimes I get to take a picture, too.

You may know Marion as our magic loop sock teacher. She does more than just socks, though. She's pictured above in her recently completed February Lady Sweater, knit with Briggs & Little Sport held double. Marion is quite the sweater knitter--check out her class on the Vogue Sleeveless Tunic on the shop website.

Meanwhile, Marian keeps coming in with incredible lace shawls. Her latest: a capelet from the Spring/Summer 2010 issue of Vogue Knitting, knit with Lana Grossa Chiara. The photo doesn't do this sparkly shawl justice. 

Thanks for sharing your knitting with us, ladies!
