Christmas Knitting

If you’ve been around this blog for a while you’ll know that I don’t knit for Christmas. I used to, but then I smartened up. I gifted too many things that went unappreciated and my knitting time is way too precious to knit for people who don’t “get” what it means to receive something hand knit. So, I save my hand knits for birthdays. And only for the birthdays of those who get it.

The nice thing about this is that when Christmas rolls around, I’m the one who winds up with new socks.

Vesper Sock Yarn. Peaks ‘n Valleys pattern from Knit Socks. This makes my 18th pair of completed socks in 2006.

Happy Christmas to me, me, me.
