Sometimes I think it’s sort of amazing that Christmas Knitting Season creeps up on me every year. I sort of think this year I have a pretty good excuse for completely forgetting that it is well into October and Christmas is only 2 months away. It’s really hard to remember that Christmas is coming when the weather keeps getting warmer.
Sad thing is I know I have totally unrealistic goals for Christmas knitting. I’m going to be an idiot and try to accomplish them anyway (never let it be said that I learn from my mistakes).
So here goes insane Christmas Knitting List 2007:
6 Pairs of Socks (3 already completed)
8 Scarves (big needles, but fiddly yarn)
1 Pair of Gloves
2 Lace shawls
And if I have time (bwhahahahaha!),
3 hats
For those of you who are keeping track, that’s anywhere from 4000 to 5000 yarns of yarn.
And the kicker? Wait for it….
All of that yarn is in my sea shipment that has been on the verge of arrival for 2 months now!
I promise finished pictures tomorrow. I’ve actually finished Blossom, Penelope, the Baby Car Coat and Flying Helmet, the September Socks and MIA Peace (how’s that for irony?). I thought I put Peace in my air shipment, but no luck. I’m praying that she’s in my sea shipment, because otherwise she’s lost forever!
