Frantically finishing projects...

It's December...a time of great joy and great stress.

I've finished knitting and sewing together the test knit. Thank goodness!!!

It definitely need some blocking. I think it turned out great. Thank you Fiona for letting me test. I still need to do the blocking, take some better pictures, and complete a survey. I want to make a throw pillow in this lovely color work pattern.

This week has been very busy dealing with a sick Ethan, doing lots of tax planning, readying for the move, and crafting. I've also been doing a lot of purging which is both good and bad. Letting go of old things can be so tough, especially when they have a lot of sentimental value.

The new place is beginning to take shape. The big move is Friday with the movers taking the furniture. 

Here is the living room. It's looking much smaller with all of the boxes. 


I also have a rare selfie of my husband and me after his firm's Christmas party.

We're both tired messes, but we had a blast.

I'm frantically crafting for Christmas this week, in between moving and work. There is a knit along that I'm trying to participate in. I have to get the project started and photograph the start tonight. There is still time...right?

I might be restarting my nephew's jacket. I found a cooler pattern and the one I was working on was in my purse too long. The yarn got all tangled. My boys might not be getting any hand crafted presents this year, but that's OK. My little Ethan will be three years old in a week...crazy!!!

Have a great week and happy holidays.

  1. You are one busy lady! I'm almost finished with my holiday crafting. Not many people are receiving crocheted items from me this year. Amelia has kept me busy.

    I'm looking forward to seeing your finished projects. :-)
