Wrist Warmers

Everyone I know will have toasty wrists this winter. I have completed three pairs of wrist warmers:
I've decided to part with the pair that I was going to keep for myself. I think that after Christmas I will make myself a pair of pink ones. I'm currently working on a cabled scarf for my mom:

I'm happy with how it's turning out. The yarn is Rowan Cashsoft Aran in Forest. It is buttery soft, and I think when I'm finished I may try weaving ribbons into the lace pattern along the sides. I think I'll package it up along with a copy of the book "I Capture the Castle", which I read recently and highly recommend. It's about a poor and eccentric family that lives in a castle in England, and the daughter is a charming narrator.

Anyway, I should get back to my knitting. I have Christmas presents to attend to.
