Christmas time is almost here...

It seems as Christmas draws closer and closer, I always seem to find new projects for gifts for family and/or friends.  the other day I found this pattern for elf slippers and thought they'd be perfect for my grand daughter.  I spent the weekend whipping them up only to realize they might be a tad small for her.


To be on the safe side, I'm working on a second pair the next size up and I'll use these as ornaments on the tree. 

It would be easier if she lived closer so I could run over and attempt to measure her various body parts (I also found a cute dress that I plan on knitting for her).  I say attempt because she's a very high-energy active 20 months year old.  Zooms everywhere.  I'm sure her mom wouldn't appreciate me dropping in all the time so it's probably best the way it is.  Fortunately they are only 5.5 hours north of us so visits aren't out of the question.

Need to finish up the slippers and get back to cleaning out the guest room.  I've been told that they are planning a trip down over the holidays!  Psyched!!

Merry Christmas!
