We wip you a Merry Christmas...
Look, one holiday knit gift done - a pair of Mitt Envys for SIL!
Oh, right. I gave them to her already, since she wasn't planning to be here for Christmas. And about five minutes after she left, realized I forgot to take pics of them first. So um, yeah, just imagine these in this colorway and tell yourself they look super cool.
My younger brother also got his Shedir on Thanksgiving, since he'll be abroad visiting the motherland over Christmas. He loved it! (Dude, SO glad I finished that one in September.) That's two down!
Actually, make that three - FIL's beret hit the FOs on Friday night, yay! Just needs a good soak, block, and photog before it gets boxed up and giftified. But here's a sneaky peeky:
Right now, I'm working on my older brother's scarf. I ditched the surprise aspect in favor of letting him pick something out. Figured it was better he get a knit he likes and will wear than a surprise that ends up in the Goodwill box! (He may be a metrosexual, but he's still a boy.)
Now I just need to knit up MIL's hat and a surprise for Hubster and that'll be it for the holiday knitting, whoo hoo!

ooooh I think I love the color of that scarf! yummy!
and those mitt evny are stunning ;-)
Oooh, I love the scarf! If your brother decides he doesn't want it, I know where it could find a happy home!
look at you with the tantalizing previews. that sounds like a lot of gift knitting. are you finding time to knit something for yourself?
Ooo, love the mitts. But why did you embroider "suck me" on the sides?
Ahhh, I'm picturing the mitts in my cobwebby mind. They look fabulous. Great job!
Ooooh your brother has good taste!
Ha ha! Yes, boys will be boys! Let's hope he breaks the trend--that scarf is purty!
Love the scarf!! Look at you go with all the gift knitting almost done!! Ugh...I'm in denial over here.
You're doing great! Keep up the good work.
Very nice!
I hate it when a gift gets given before pictures... I've done that once or twice. Maybe she'll send you a pic of her wearing the mitts?
Gorgeous knits - good luck getting everything done.
Good on ya! I have two down, I wish I was as up to date as you!
BTW I love your sock monster!!!
