Birthday Warmth

The past couple months have been extremely busy, but I have managed to get some knitting done. Unfortunately, I haven't been very good about sharing it. Hubby and I are great friends with a woman from our campus. When her November birthday was coming up, it was Hubby who said that we needed to knit something for her. Our friend is from India so she is not very keen on these New York winters. Thanks to Kelley, I (and Hubby by proximity) discovered the joys of hot water bottles last year, so we decided to pass on the warmth and knit our friend a hot water bottle cover.

I knit the cover and Hubby knit the patch on the front. This is his first attempts at colorwork, and I have to say I'm really proud.
