01/17/08: Old Stuff I Could Not Show Earlier

Well I had a banner year for knitted gifts this past Christmas. I nearly finished everything I set out to do, which included:
6 pairs of socks
3 scarves
2 Christmas Stockings
and
7 or so washcloths

See below for what was not yet posted here:

Chevron Scarf for Cranky Monkey (if you read her she already posted about this :)


Garden Scarf for my Grandmother (started when I posted the pattern, but only actually finished it in December :)


Gingerbread and Tree Washcloths/Dishcloths for Friends







What is not quite finished are 2 socks. I am to or past the heel on both though and the recipients each got one complete sock on Christmas day so I was so close, but then I was all burnt out and have not wrapped those up yet, oops!

Sock 1 for my Father


I also made my own ornaments as you saw before, but what you did not see was that I again made some magnets. Well lots of magnets and more complicated than last years I must say. Good thing I had sibbling help :) I was very into gingerbread anything this past season. I even made a nice gingerbread tree decorated with mini m&ms. I have to get the photo from my sister so I can show you all that one.

Magnets Galore!




Besides that I have been slowly picking up the needles again so there will be more to come as usual.
