Knitting away: Kilter Hat, Christmas, Hanukkah, Addi Giveaway

December is always such a busy month! Our pop-up show/shop was a great success. I sold all but one of my knit pieces, and am happy to know that they’re going to be well loved out in the world.

Kilter

One piece was my Kilter Hat, which looks great on my friend Sharyn.

I put it on my Facebook page, and now I’m knitting one as a gift for Mom (DH’s mom) at her request in Malabrigo Rios. I’m not usually a deadline gift knitter, but I really want this to be in her hands before she heads to Antarctica later this month. I got this much done at knit nite last night. Knit like the wind!

Kilter Coco

The color is Coco, which makes me giggle, because that was Biscuit’s name, between Trix and BellaTrix.

Super cabled Christmas Stocking

I also finished my Super Cabled Christmas Stocking on Thursday and sold it along with its red sibling on Friday. Quick work!

Knit nite

Knit night last night was fun, and Biscuit participated fully. Note that she has a chair, and I’m sitting on the floor.

I haven’t decorated my house for the holidays yet. I’m wary of putting up my usual mini-tree because I keep catching Biscuit on the piano. I wonder how she’ll behave with menorah candles? This is my usual setup:

Christmas Hanukkah

And will she pull down the stocking holders from the mantel? One of these moose weights could knock her out.

  1. Giroux says he sees NOTHING wrong with Biscuit having a chair to sit on. LOL

    Good luck with the decorations. So far, ours have not caught the attention of Giroux. We *may* try a tree next year. (No room in the apt. this year.)
