I got everything but my cross stitch done. Thankfully, I was able to find a gift for my aunt and uncle because I never got around to the cross stitch projects. The first one that I was able to finish was Emma’s Frog Princess. It was suppose to be a Frog Prince but because of the recent movie that came out, I thought that the Frog Princess idea would be very cute. All I did was add a braid under the crown, but it made it very cute.
I also got Michelle’s scarf finished. I kind of pooped out at the last minute and only let it get long enough for it to go around her neck and wrap through once. It still looks very nice, especially with the coral-colored buttons!
Melissa’s mittens turned out great too. The pattern has you use both US 5 & US 7 needles for them, but I kept the US 5 on the whole time because I forgot the US 7 dpn’s at home. They turned out great and she LOVES them!
Because my mom was off from work on the Monday before we left for Pittsburgh, I wasn’t able to get either of her projects done. While we were in Pittsburgh we went to Knit One, which was just an amazing yarn store, we got some Ozark Handspun and I made her a wonderful cowl out of it. This ended up being a replacement Christmas present and it turned out just wonderfully!
That was all of my holiday knitting that I got done on the trip. Because I got my tonsils out yesterday, I will have even more time on my hands to get more knitting projects done. I can’t wait to get to them and be able to share them with you as well! Hope everyone had a wonderful and Merry Christmas. If I don’t post before New Year’s Eve, Happy New Year to everyone as well!
