Thin on the Holiday Gifts
But it's not what you think...it wasn't from procrastination or startitis or the mounting pile of UFOs. It was from knowing my limits and my tendencies toward 2 out of 3 of the above (okay really 3 out of 3). So I stuck to the plan of knitting a realistic goal of two holiday gifts.
I actually knit my hubby's Hanukkah gift very early...I was done with his reverse rib scarf (really the Children's rainbow scarf from Last-Minute Knitted Gifts) in manly Noro Kureyon colors in early October.
Then I loved my felted purse so much that I went with a modified pattern of the Booga Bag for my friend Jill for Xmas. Her version is with 3 different shades and skeins of Cascade and then some novelty Lion Brand yarn I de-stashed (when I didn't know any better). I was done 3 weeks out!
