Whew!

Christmas was wonderful. I hope everyone had a fabulous and relaxing weekend. My girls had a great time, and the season is always so magical with little ones around.

I finished Olivia’s doll. She has braids (by request) that won’t quit. I gave Veronica’s doll a haircut, and I like it significantly better now. On Christmas Day, I knit a new outfit for Abby’s doll, and she’s been attached to it ever since. I’ll take some pictures this week.

Look what I got on Thursday.

That’s right. My wonderful Flowerswap partner made this beautiful flower for me. It’s great! Thanks, Myra in Hawaii!

Well, I was telling my neighbor yesterday that it’s a weird sensation having Christmas over, my mom’s sweater done, the flower pin done… Other than Pete’s bag, I don’t have any knitting commitments left! I’m a free woman! I need to keep it this way for a little while. Well, there are a couple birthdays this month that I’d like to knit for, but I haven’t committed to anything. It feels great. I can focus on ME knitting for a bit. Let’s see, I want to finish Lauralund. I really want a new cardigan because my old one is ragged, and I much prefer cardigans to jackets. I want to make the hoodie from S&B… but you’ve heard all this before. I’m just so happy that I can knit for myself without feeling guilty. Right. So, on to Pete’s bag…

And there are some “little girly” Christmas pictures, if you’re interested.

    Oh, Merry Christmas to you too! I’m glad yours was good; your girls look absolutely adorable and tuckered out. I can’t wait to see the doll close ups. And I do love their hair.
    I must update later, but Merry Christmas!!!

    A belated Merry Christmas! I gave two Hayden hats as Christmas gifts. I’ll be posting pictures on my blog later this week. Both hats were big hits. Thanks for sharing the pattern with us.

    Your girls are beautiful.

    Happy New Year,
    Karen
