After Christmas.....

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas! I certainly did! It was very low key and relaxing. Of course I spent my six days off from work finishing up my shopping and baking, cleaning house and of course, knitting! I finished quite a few gifts I was planning to give, which included a darling Hello Kitty hat and fingerless mitts for my four year old grandchild Madison. I am including my most recent project, a selfish knit! Just for me! In my most favorite yarn ever, Malabrigo Arroyo, in the colorway Plomo! This yarn is so fabulous, superwash merino wool! Soft, snugly and awesome stitch definition. I highly recommend it.

Really a lovely pattern and fun to knit! Mindless knitting! Just what I needed after the busy holiday rush knits I did! Have a very Happy New Year! Some friends of mine and myself are planning a knit-a-long (KAL) beginning in February. We are planning to knit the Low Tide top from TinCanKnits: http://www.tincanknits.com/pattern-PK-lowtide.html There are so many awesome patterns and yarny yumminess out there, I will never have enough time to make them all or touch all the scrumptious yarns. I am going to try my best to do as many as I can though! I hope you do too!
