Remember that handspun that I've been working on? Let's officially call it a 246 yards skein of yarn. It is a 2-ply Merino in sports weight. More pictures & details here. I think the Elk Tooth shawl pattern by Catlin French will be a perfect match for this yarn.
Hope that this post finds you surrounded with what warms your heart the most. Take time to celebrate ~ your family, memories, stash, successes, lessons learnt and even those gifts that were cast off at the eleventh hour. I'll catch up with you after the Holidays. Be Merry!
I've also taken it easy this year, with hardly any handmade gifts. The only thing I still have to do is prepare a lunch for my family, but I think it'll be fine :)
ReplyDeleteCooking is not my strongest skill. I rather knit a shawl :-) Thanks for stopping by. Happy Holidays!
DeleteThis year I took it easy as well, only one handmade gift (and even that was a last-minute quickie!). Enjoy the holidays, it looks beautiful where you are!
ReplyDeletethanks for stopping by Holly! Happy Holidays and best wishes for the New Year!
DeleteGood for you for taking it easy this year...I could learn from you! Have a wonderful and relaxing holiday.
ReplyDeleteif I could knit mittens or a Vector as beautiful as your gifts I would go for it! But, knowing my limitations (and lack of speed) i am better not stressing about it. thanks for your comments and visits this year! I looking forward to many more posts on your blog! Happy Holidays! Happy New Year!
DeleteYou're so sweet Monica! I have also enjoyed reading your blog this year and seeing the many beautiful things you have created...and let's not forget all the yarn you have spun...just beautiful. All the best in 2015!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sending a virtual hug your way. BTW, I've been meaning to tell you that I cannot comment on your blog. I'll send you an email with the message that I get every time I try...! :-(
