Books and more
Here’s the picture of the completed Hippy Crunchy socks. I like how they look rather well. I decided to use only three pattern repeats, partly because of the time crunch. I needed to hurry up and finish them. I’m happy with the result, so I’m calling it a design decision, not cheating.
Yes, it’s a zoo
In more ways than one… I’ve neglected much of my holiday preparation except knitting. Today, I will have to start focusing on gift wrapping, addressing cards (late!) and helping Mom decorate the tree.
Chris mentioned that I was knitting a zoo. How very true. Another way to look at it is as a Noah’s Ark, since I am knitting pairs of each animal. :)
I’ve got pictures, but they aren’t the best—the sun has gone temporarily into hibernation.
Quelle Horreur!
In this case, the picture speaks for itself. more »
Holiday Preparation
I stopped by the 3 Kittens (update: link fixed, thanks!) last weekend to get some yarn for the secret gift I’m making. I lucked out because they were having a sale. The yarn I bought was 45% off, and I also got 15 patterns for $1! (The yarn doesn’t break my Yarn Diet, because it’ll be used for a gift.)
