'Tis the reason for the season, so here's a picture of the wonderful knitted nativity my Mum sent me. She is so clever, a wonderful knitter and a really thoughtful person. Miss you this year Mum! Three Wise Men, two shepherds, 3 (CUTE) sheep (all with different fleeces!) Joseph, Mary, and baby Jesus. I was speechless. I love nativity scenes and have a smallish collection. Love you Mum!!
On the gift knitting side, I finished 2 pairs of Fetching and 3 hats. Not too (terribly) shabby. Pictures...coming (forgot my USB cable, aargh!).
I am half way thru one sock made with beautiful Summer Slushy 100% merino yarn from Whimzy pinzy. Yarn is great, pattern (Uptown Boot Sock, from Favorite Socks by Interweave Knits) kind of boring. Plus I made the child's size (why???) so now I have to look for a small footed friend.
Nollaig Shona, Feliz navidad, Joyeux Noel, Merry Christmas!

Thank you for sharing your Nativity! My grandmother made mine from porcalin... crap I can't spell. I always cry when I put it out. It is beautiful.
I have always wanted to craft something along this line for my children. Now... I have a few ideas as to how.
