Homemade Christmas Part One




Here's what my little fingers have been working on for the past few days! I made a warm scarf out of the easy peasy single crochet for my brother, and then a really chunky cowl for my mom out of the thickest warmest yarn ever in a double crochet stitch. I had never used that weight of yarn before and I am hooked (couldn't help the pun) because it works up so quickly.

Do you get in the knitting / crocheting mood when the temperatures cool off? I love how many (affordable) gifts I'm able to make for my friends and family, hooray for being thrifty ;)

  1. Your fingers sure have been busy the last few days! Wish I was talented enough to get into knitting, but my hand-eye coordination is zero.

  2. I'm so jealous you can knit/crochet like that! Scarves are such a great (affordable) gift. Sounds like you are having a wonderful time at home so far! Btw- Mindy Kaling's book is fantastic, I read it in 24 hours. I hope you write a little review for your blog!
