Whew. That was fun wasn't it? The Christmas holabaloo, that is. Is it sad that I am kind of glad it is over? I think that may have something to do with the unnecessary stress we place on ourselves. In my last post I was contemplating casting on one final project. With less than a week I cast on a project that the Ravelers who made it stated, took them forever. All I can say is after I finished it at 11:00 p.m. Christmas Eve. I thought about running outside yelling ," I am king of the world!!!" I will posting a picture soon. As you can guess it was a gift and since it was up till the last minute the receiver is going to take some photos for me. Hopefully very soon. (Hint Hint)
So on the day after Christmas I am lazily watching football, crocheting, and flipping through some knitting magazines. Check these out, my little mama found some older Vogue knitting magazines.
Excuse the the bottom one being so blurry, but I had to show you. What year does it look like? To me it looks like the 80's-nope it is 2007/2008. Weird how styles come back.
I am reworking my nephews blanket that I had wanted to finish by his birthday (November 2010-haha). The Ripple pattern just did not seem like him. So it took it all out and now I think I am on the right path. It is a little boring but I think it will be perfect for him.
I hope you all have had a day to recoup from the festivities.
Have a great Sunday!

Wow! You worked hard on that doll for your sister! I would have said too that that magazine looked like it was from the 80's! Hope Santa brought you everything you wanted! xx
