Knitted Lighthouse!

So, I was at my grandma's house, and she had some cool yarn in some sea colors. She also has tons of pictures of lighthouses and beaches and stuff. So I thought to myself "Hey, I'll make a knitted lighthouse!"
And here we are.
The extremely scratched-up CD was placed there for size comparison. Perhaps a ruler would have been better... Naa!

So you do SOMETHING like this. It may be a bit innacurate because it's been awhile.

- *K1, yo, Repeat from * 4 times, K1. K2tog for next five sts.
- k across
- k across
- P across

Repeat previous four rows.

So you do that for the bottom, switching out colors for the sand, the seafoam, the ocean itself, etc. Once the ocean seems big enough, stop doing the above pattern and just do a stockinette stitch. Then on the side you do something like this:



Then, toward the top I knitted white and blue yarn at the same time, giving that cool cloudy look.
For a border I crocheted a thin strip in blue, and then I crocheted that foamy-looking border.

New stuff!

Oops! It's been awhile! I AM SO MEAN!!!
Anyway, here's something new. It's a graph.
So I'm a huge Zelda fan, and here is an outline of Link and Epona. It's really huge, but still cool, right?
Right?

Anyway, I was aiming for some sort of Twilight Princess thing, and thought it would be really cool to put this outline in black with a background of yellow and orange yarn mixed together, doubled up or whatever.
However, this idea is untested, and I have yet to get around to that. I'm not even sure how well the picture will come out when it's knitted, although by my calculations, knitted from nose-to-tail or tail-to-nose, it should be okay.

Valentines Scarf

So after a bit of surfing the web, I came across a really cool pattern on Smariek Knits called "St. Albans Valentine Cable." (http://smariek.blogspot.com/2008/11/scarf-15.html)
This person is some sort of super genious or something.
ANYway, here are the pics (my pics).
Boy, all these cables took a lot of work, but isn't that a satisfying result?
