I had this master plan in January to start my Christmas knitting and be done with it quickly so I wouldn't still be working on things at the last minute. Great idea ~ one small detail threw a wrench into that plan. With 12 months before Christmas, my knitting list grew in leaps and bounds compared to what I would normally do if I began knitting in September. Not complaining, just saying.
I'm
so excited to give the recipients their presents this year. There has been a ton of behind the scenes goings on that I'm excited to share once I can do so without spoiling the surprises. I churned out 10 gifts ~ that's about 185,000 stitches if I did my math correctly and around 4,700 yds of yarn. Lots of work but everyone I knit for is
completely knitworthy.
And finally, here's some
very exciting news!! Do you guys remember
this post of baby clothing that I had made for my husband's friend/coworker and his wife? Well, this is little Neoma Jane who is now 2 months old wearing one of the sweaters I made for her. Two weeks ago my husband and I were asked to be her Godparents ~ we are so shocked and honored and tickled, and of course we said
yes!! I have a little girl that I can knit for
forever and as you can guess, I've already started. I whipped out a little sweater this weekend to give to her now and I'll probably make something for her for Christmas, also.
Probably. Did I really just write that? You know I will for sure!
Any ideas on cute baby girl items I should take a look at? I'm open to all suggestions!
I hope everyone has a fantastic Thanksgiving ~ I know we have much to be thankful for this year :)
