Yarn Along







One sock is complete!  The other is in the works.  I'm not sure they will be complete for Christmas, but I'm not worrying about that.  This Advent has been about people and not as much about knitting.  Oh it goes with me everyday, and I work a little here and there, but the people around me need me more right now.
Christmas preparation are underway.  Caitlin and her special guy arrive Saturday and I am super excited!  A pantry needs stocking and some last minute sewing needs to be finished. It will get done.  I have pulled myself out of all obligations this week in order to concentrate on my own family and home.  There will be 13 of us here Christmas Day and that takes planning:)))

I am doing a little reading  this week.  I love Jan Karon and this volume is full of Christmas Spirit!

And big news at Drawstrings! There will be an after Christmas sale you won't want to miss!  Keep watch here and on the Facebook page for the discounts.

I don't know if  Ginny will do a Yarn Along next week, so if not let me wish each of you the merriest Christmas!

  4. I love the Christmas sock! It's a tough time of year to get everything done. I figure if I can get my Christmas socks done between Christmas and New Years it's a win. If not - I can always wear them next year. Enjoy the season!

  8. I like what you said about this Advent being more about people. That's kind of where we are right now.

  10. A Merry Christmas to you and yours! 13 people in the house... that does take planning indeed! So nice to hear that you've cleared some time to prepare beforehand - I find when I'm able to do it, it makes me less stressed and more able to enjoy myself alongside everyone else.
