Christmas 2008 Knitting Finished Just In Time:)

I had set a deadline for myself for finishing Christmas presents and charity knitting for December 31 2008. I realized in order to get all of the knitting done in time I needed to enlist the help of my knitting hubby.
I finished knitting the last hat for Kathy's Warm Hat For Charity Drive at 6pm on December 31st 2008.
Below Stella my Styrofoam head is modeling it.(If you would like to purchase this Simple Slip Stitch Pattern Just Email Karen the designer at creativepursuits@gmail.com)



Our 4 year old Alora was happy to model the 2 toddler hats hubby knit for the warm hat drive.
I will send off all 6 hats January 2nd 2009 to Kathy










Both Hubby and I knitted a wine tote for Christmas gifts for Momma Rhonda And brother Joe & Wife Shannon. I felted them and then had name tags made for them they are ready to send off as well.
