I’m knitting a pair of socks (one at a time) for my grown up son for Christmas. It’s the first pair of socks that I’ve knit him (although I’m a big sock knitter). I always thought that he wouldn’t like them, but he turns out that he’s looking forward to wearing them!
The Moonshine and Variorim look great together, cant wait for an update on the knit. On My needles is another 2024 Christmas Stocking from Arne & Carlos. This will be the 3rd one and this time I have change it to 3 shades of Blue in 4ply Acrylic (the yardage per ball places it between Sport and Fingering in US speak - i found a conversion chart so I could figure out what you guys are talking about when referring to different yarn weights).
Jana-- I’m knitting the same as you-- what a color fest !!!!! I already finished Arne and Carlos Christmas Advent Stocking and a pair of Wollens and Nosh socks for my husband. He loves them and they’re as much of a color fest as our socks. Go Michele !!!!!
Jana, don't worry, it your kids are anything like my kid, we still play games when he and his wife come over, (he's in his 30s) it just won't happen as often.
Also loving the board game suggestions... this is our favorite "bring people together" activity. Our go tos are Taboo, Catan and Pandemic. My son loves cribbage ans has been "skunking" me since he could count to 15. On the needles I have the SHB mystery and the Dustland Blanket. Having so few wips has me thinking I should cast something(s) on...🤔 Thank you both for being the highlight to my day.❤
We had family Christmas last weekend. Sons are 4 and 7 hours away. I can just relax now and enjoy quiet time to knit. We will go to Chinese restaurant on Christmas day.
The To-Do list has started. I need to finish the puzzle-pillow blanket! I lost to yarn chicken and am creating an original color scheme. Onward! As Meg Swansen says!
I'm knitting along on my Woolens and Nosh socks. I knit ahead to catch up with Jana. Her Day 18 is my day 21. I like to knit along while watching the beginning of the episode, then if I haven't revealed my colour by the time Jana shows her's I pause the episode, LOL. I also got Emma's yarn advent. I'm knitting Briochex with that, though I'm still on Hexagon 1. That's all my current knits. :)
I love the happy socks. I’m still knitting a Bojagi shawl but the colors are a bit muted for me so I’ve been procrastinating. I will finish this thing!
I'm knitting a second Shiftigan by Andrea Mowry. The first one was for my oldest daughter, and now my youngest wants one. This one is knit in Mountain Medow Wool Cody in the color Fern. Only using one contrast color and that's Spincycle Yarns Dyed in the Wool in the color Summer Love. I'm also working on the Voyage Hat by Wool & Pine. It has constantly changing colors, so I'm using a lot of leftover stash yarns that are fingering weight. It's a lot of fun to knit.
I realized yesterday that I’m very close on 2 of my 3 remaining WIPS - the race is on. Looking forward to starting the Berroco blanket MKAL starting Jan 2 so it would be great to have only 1 other project unfinished before starting a year-long venture. All your puzzle talk has me wanting to pull one out and start. 🤔 knit or puzzle …
I finished a pair of socks already this month, finished one sock of the next pair and I'm still working on a cross stitching project of 65000 stitches (which is gonna take me years to finish, im only at like 15%)
Jana, your sweater is awesome!!! I love playing board games!!!
Morning fun Morning watching you two sharing your day ahead.
Thanks Jana and Anne. Need to wrap presents and finish up a few projects yet.

I finally sewed the buttons on my Mahina cardigan 😮 and I'm playing catch-up on a year-long MKAL shawl (I'm currently working on August 😅)

I am knitting the Country Christmas Hat by Kay Jones of the Bakery Bears. It is the patron make along for this year.
I’m plugging away on the second sleeve of a Brume sweater and doing my best not to start anything new in the meantime!

Our dog would get to puzzle pieces that fell on the floor, especially when we had been working on it too long ( meaning at all 😂)

It's the striped socks advent kit that we ordered from Woolens and Nosh.
@ Thank you.

It’s not a Friday, so I’ve cast on the Lento sweater 😆
