Christmas!

I think Christmas is both more fun and more stressful now that I have become enamored with knitting.  I want to make everyone something, and there's just not enough time.

I have plans for things, and I admit that I am going to suck up to MyFriend's daughters by making them things this year and not make so much for my kids.  Bad mom.  Oh well.

I'm going to make boot cuffs for the older daughter, who is in college, and for the younger daughter
I'm going to make these slippers:

They are just about the cutest thing ever.  I'll make some for Middle and Smallest too, because how can I not?  I started on my test pair (for Middle) last night and I think they'll go really quickly.  They're felted, and I've never felted anything before, so it could be an adventure.

I will document the progress.  And I probably won't have time to make the Link gauntlets for Darren this year, Catherine.  Or some other cool things I wanted to make for you.
I did manage to lose a really nice cowl I made last year.  I don't know if I gave it to Mom, or Put It Somewhere in the house?  I am baffled.  It was really soft and warm and I'd sure like to wear it at work sometimes.  Ah well.  Maybe it will turn up in the sleeve of a coat!  I'll have to go check.
