Christmas Knitting

I should have started my Christmas knitting sooner but I hadn't found any patterns that I feel like my family and friends would like and use. I just finished a prayer shawl and then I got an order for a pair of slippers. She just had to have a pair for herself once she saw mine. And I do have to say they're the best felted project I've ever done. I've never sold any of my knitted items before, she's a friend from high school so I'm only going to charge her for the cost of the yarn and for shipping. I had already started on a pair of felt clogs for the boyfriend. So once I finish the clogs and the slippers I need to get on the Christmas knitting. Looks like fingerless gloves, scarves, felted slippers and felted bags are going to be my life between now and Dec 24. I'm either going to burn out on knitting or my hands are going to freak out when there isn't anything left to knit. Hopefully all this Christmas knitting will put a dent in my stash.

I'm going to be taking a lot of yarn back to Michael's that I'm not going to use. Poor Acrylic purchases that I made when I was hypnotized and got yarnitis when I started knitting again. I don't have the receipts but they do give you a store credit. They take 20% off your credit if you don't have the receipts but it's better than having all that acrylic in my house. I feel like they offend the natural fibers in my stash.
