ready

that's me. little miss on-the-ball, lady johnny-on-the-spot, senorita preparada.

yeah, right.

i can hardly believe it myself, but holiday knitting has begun. some has even been completed. i have made a list, i have checked it twice, and there's still time to find out who is naughty and who is nice. i finished two holiday gifts this weekend, which really sets me ahead of the curve. i don't mean to brag or anything, but i think i'm going to reach my holiday knitting goal.

may i present, mizz midwest moonlight, for my newest sister, t:

she is from scarf style, crafted from knit picks elegance on the most beautiful rosewood straight #7s. (her true color is closer to the one on top - lilac is the colorway). i really really heart her. she blocked gorgeously, and is very long (about 70 incheds) and wide (at least 12 inches) and comfy and soft, and, oh, do i really have to give her away???

i also finished a pair of sock hop socks, in the hard day's night colorway, which are pretty freaking cool, too.

you are sooooo good. i spend more time fretting over what to make, which project to work on, vs. the actual making!
i just need to make a good list ... right?!

Oh WOW! I did see you working on this, but haven't gotten to see it in its finished form yet. Bring it on Thurday girl! What a beautiful pattern and great knitting!
