I have finished the stealth knitting. Please meet Dougal, from the Magic Roundabout (for those old enough to remember). He is for the Princess, and is the first knitted toy I have ever made. It's an Alan Dart pattern and was not too much of a stretch. I'm quite proud of him. I even made the pompoms - luckily I remembered a little gizmo in the Princess's french knitting set....
I have also finished one Holidazed sock, the December kit from the Rockin' Sock Club '08. I am still havering about whether to rejoin next year. Maybe if the dollar improves....
I have managed 2 body repeats on the Shetland Triangle - my very small Contribution to the Long Lacey Summer. I love this, but haven't had much time recently....
And in the spirit of Christmas, a beautiful package from Bells - some Kaalund lace yarn - sooooooo gorgeous - and a lovely knitted handtowel - thank you so much Bells - beautifully chosen - and Princess has already attempted to steal it!
So, just in case I don't get back to do another post before Cccccc - ccc - Christmas! Have a merry and safe Christmas, and a happy, and healthy 2009. My the fat guy - no NOT the Accountant - the other one! bring you all the things you desire, but don't forget those who are doing it tough over Christmas - and make sure you help out the groups who help them!
Merry Christmas, one and all!

The Princess is SO LUCKY! I loved Magical Roundabout when I was a kid.
I hope you all have a lovely Christmas (there! I said it!) over your way!!
Merry Christmas to all of you. Working in the mental health field, I see lots of folks who are "doing it rough" and we are trying to help. I hope the holidays are joyful and happy for all of you and the new year is a healthy one.
Merry Christmas to you all and a happy and healthy 2009.
The verification word is "gosit." I can't wait until there is time to just go sit!!
Merry Christmas to you and yours! It's going to happen whether we are ready or not, so might as well hang on for the ride!
Wishing you joy and happiness. x
