One More Week!!!

Just one More week till Christmas!  Are you ready?

I got my tree up!

I went to an amazing Christmas Party!

Our Beautiful Hostess, Elizabeth:

Ornament Cupcakes!

Me and Jen Matching!

Ornament Exchange

While at the Christmas party, Elizabeth showed me her Chiaogoo shorties.....she puts a 3" needle on the left side and a 2" needle on the right and goes to town.....so I ordered just one size (amazon link here) to try it out.

Antonio won his last soccer game (I was not able to go)

Paige made healthy muffins

I finished the hat and started a 2nd one.

I got a new Joji bag from my friend having the Christmas party....the orange is really hard to photograph

I want to make another one of these hats with my Knitphomaniac yarn (same yarn I used to make my portage) and a lighter mohair

 I finished the first of two headbands for Yvette

and I finally got a picture of Karl with his socks....they fit!  Yahoo!!

I have been enjoying my tea calendar from Darlene.....

I also finally finished Darlene's Christmas present.....I got her the flight of stitch markers set, a little namaste case, a set of knit picks needles for making hats/sleeves and I crocheted her a Good Vibes Throw.

Well, that is all I have......have a great week everyone......here are some Christmas rules!

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

Tis the Season......

Tis the Season to be sick I guess.....I have been miserable since shortly after Thanksgiving and am just now beginning to feel a little more human.  I saw the Dr Monday and she told me to get these puppies...and they not only have dried out my nose, but my eyes, mouth and I think pretty much every drop of liquid from my body......LOL....but I am feeling better

I also made my first ever chicken soup on my own....it was pretty darn good

I am sorry I missed my Monday post but clearly my life and organization are like oil and water.....

I really have not done much.  I think I posted the last 3 weeks that I finally finished those Thanksgiving socks for Karl and I also just finally took a decent picture of them

I think I told you last week I was gonna start a hat....and I did.

the only other thing I worked on was Grace's Socks.....

I had a Poke Bowl that was amazing and just had to share....plus my first day of tea (even though I was sick) was fabulous.....I cannot wait to have day 4 today!

I do have a bit of a cute story from Thanksgiving and then I will give you my family picture overload from Thanksgiving.

Remember the sweater for Grace

Well, she has a friend who apparently really likes it....I was told the conversation went something like this:

Friend:  I love this sweater it's really nice
Grace:  Thanks, my Tante made it for me
Friend:  Your aunt made this for you?  What do I need to do to get one?
Grace:  Oh, I am pretty sure we would need to get married for that to happen!

Gotta love my niece....she is the greatest and she knows that sweater is not just for anyone.

Okay....Have a great week everyone....Here is my Thanksgiving family picture overload!

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!
