Christmas list...

So hand knit gifts are great! Yeah but they better be appreciated. Because most of them go to people who don’t knit the receivers have no idea what knitters go through in the months leading up to Christmas. The day after thanksgiving is nothing compared to knitting a pair of mittens everyday. So I will explain more with the list I have made myself…

- Two pairs of legwarmers
- Three hats
- Six pairs of fetching
- Two pairs of mittens
- One pair of socks
- One scarf
- One dog sweater

So my plan is to finish or almost finish one half of a pair each day. Ha! I guess it’s a good plan. So far I have been doing pretty good progress today I should be able to finish one of the pairs of fetching. And perhaps start another pair.

So this is a pair of fetching for one of the six pairs that I need to finish before Christmas. Plus I figure if I have time I will make an extra pair for that person I know I’ll forget to get something for. And does anyone have ideas for my brother? Whether it is hand knit or not he is so hard to buy for.

Noro Fetching for Jessica

This is my experiment in noro. It worked. I think I like fetching in noro better. It is so fun to knit to the next color, and then the next color, and then well you get the point. They knit up very fast because you just want to knit with the nest color. I started these on the way to Erie with Sean and Jamie. Its the best pattern for taking with you because it all fits nicely in a small bag. And when there is an hour wait at Red Lobster you can knit at the bar. Lol.

The best part my car broke down when we were just about to leave Erie. So we got a new alternator belt and while we waited for metric tools for the volvo I knit at a sports bar. HAHA I am a dork! But I love it. So Sean fixed the car and we got home fine and the mittens were finished shortly thereafter.

And I have back a friend that I lost a year and a half ago! I lost a few some I wish I still had, this one I missed a lot. One can go to hell where she will inevitably be going to anyway, but the faster she is there I think the better for the sake of the human race and morals every where (whore).

Ok I am done!
