While I work on Christmas
gifts year round the monthof December always finds
me with a list that is not
complete.
Since I know I have family
members that visit here I am
only showing you a peek of
what is currently taking up
most of my knitting time...
tis' the season. :)
I can share with you a future
yarn along project that I
was thrilled to win from
Susan B. Anderson and
Infinite Twist, The
Heyward Shawl Kit.
I am looking forward to
casting on just as soon
as all my Christmas knitting
is wrapped.
I am still reading My Sister's Grave
and can see it being made into
a tv movie in the future; it's
a very easy read.

ReplyDeletewhat a pretty surprise you bought yourself. I love the green. This time of year is magical with all the secret knitting we are doing :)
ReplyDeleteYour family and friends are very lucky to be recipients of your beautiful knitting! Will you give us a glimpse after you have given the gifts? Lucky you, that is a beautiful pattern and yarn!
ReplyDeleteOoh lots of lovely things here Tracey. Your quote is interesting. I remember when I was tiny falling and getting a septic knee. My father took me to the Drs and he prescribe salt water baths for my knee.
ReplyDeleteI feel so selfish this year reading of all the gifts you have made as I've just completed my third hat for myself! I must get on with some stocking fillers for others.
Enjoy knitting your gorgeous yarn.

Nature is pretty in your neighborhood. That is a great mixed yellow green. It will make a lovely shawl.
ReplyDeleteI just ordered from Infinite Twist too! I ordered the Wizzpopper in the Larkspur colorway. It will actually be a Christmas present from hubby (wasn't that nice of me to do the shopping for him?). And I do agree - saltwater is the cure for many things.
ReplyDeleteAll the shades of green in that yarn - beautiful! :)
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely, calm colours here today - nature really is the best inspiration. That Hayward shawl looks very inciting...I think I need to go follow that link! xo
