Fun and Mayhem

by barbara waters

Didn’t quite make it here yesterday, but I’m sure most of you did not, either.

Christmas at our house was much merriment, fun and mayhem. Same as yours, I’m sure. At least I hope you had a share in the same. There is NOTHING like a group of grandyounguns to make your heart go pitty-pat, I must say.

Grandpa worked all night so he came home and grabbed some shut-eye while I snoozed in my chair - resting up for the onslaught - and watched some Christmas telly. I did miss our local news program’s special last night - hopefully they will run it again New Year’s eve. It is always fun - music videos with local talent, music from local talent as well. Merry Christmas from Alaska 8! Hmmm - they don’t have #8 listed there yet, but it is available in local stores.

I finished up another purse, so now have two waiting to be felted. Both of these are from the One Skein Wonders book.

Oh, and how did the family like their hats/scarf/purse? Lookit here:

Yeah, there’s always (at least) one making faces - this is the best group shot I could get (out of several). They’re MY monkeys and I love ‘em - funny faces and all.

And the Boy? He LOVED his spooky hat (from knitty.com) - check it out:

He added some bugs and frogs. VERY realistic, now! ;)

Lessa put together a photo montage of the day - enjoy:

About Knitting Passion

Is knitting really a passion? On THIS blog it is - for all who come here. Blog entries will be made up of patterns, photos of in-progress or completed work - off the wall discussions about whatever tickles the author's fancy (Survivor Knitting anyone?). This can be as much YOUR blog as it is the current author's. Questions will be entertained and answers sought diligently. Comments are always welcome - and information ALWAYS appreciated. Will there be stories and pictures of the stash of yarn or the duplicated knitting needles? Will there be more off the wall ideas for knitting? Will there be original patterns or freebies cited? Only the dark of night and the author's amount of caffeine or sleep can determine that.

Ready? ONE - TWO - GET SET - KNIT!
