right, so i was totally going to post pictures of my three (yes three!) finished projects, but my camera is in the car and i'm simply too lazy to go and get it. so i'll save them for tomorrow. but i'll tell you something...they're too dang cute! i had a fifth grade student beg me to make one for his neice. hehehe he'll pay me $20 to do it too :) so look forward to the cuteness!
so i've come up with my partial christmas list:
1. one pair of mittens for someone who already knows he/she is getting them ;)
2. many cute little felted pears from the holiday interweave knits (too lazy to link to them)
3. two stockings--maybe more if i'm super good(not to be confused with stalkings!) from previously mentioned magazine
4. one pair of slippers knit from ugly acrylic yarn for my father in law (to replace his old ones--yeah i know i should use nice yarn, but he just loves the old ones!)
5. and for fun...the cute mittens and stockings from holiday interweave. too dang cute to pass up for our christmas tree!
now that list isn't too unmanageable is it? the two stockings is rather ambitius--and they're only for us, so those can wait i guess. but the other knitting, i'm feeling good about. okay so i'm a little nervous about the mittens (fingerless gloves, but a little bit more?) and i think that should be good. no handmade gifts for mother in law, she's made it clear she doesn't like them. and husband, i don't know what he would like knit. maybe a rockin pirate hat. anywho. i need to go assemble our bed again (sheet cleaning day) and i think i shall retire to bed.
