A little holiday baking...

Happy Winter Solstice!

May you find warmth and light on this, the darkest of nights.

Knitting in progress

The holidays are coming, I have lots to do! Knitting is something that can't be rushed, unlike sewing or painting(which I have no problems speeding through). I wonder how some one as impatient as I am can find joy in something so tedious.
Maybe that is just it, it forces me to slow down and relax.

So Green

One of the things I really love about Oregon is that it is green ALL the time. Even in the middle of the winter.
Just beautiful!

A bit of knittin'....

I just HAD TO take a break from sewing dragon tails just long enough to knit a few projects. Sophie got a new pair of mittens from this pattern.
Solomon is sporting a pair of baby fingerless mitts, I have a ton of these made up for the craft show next weekend at Milagros. Sollie loves them and actually keeps them on... although one is missing now...........any way.
And Papa got a new hat from this pattern. . I think he likes it, he didn't take it off for days , he even slept in it. awe. He picked the yarn out too. It wasn't hard to get him to the yarn store once he knew it used to be a recording studio.
I am off to work on a more involved knitting project for the wee-est one. He is my favorite victim to knit for afterall as he is still to little to protest. ha, Ha, HA......(can you hear my evil laugh?)
