Finally, now that Christmas presents have been opened, I can share some of my December knitting with you.

I discovered a blog that was publishing knitted Santa sack patterns for advent. Bekki did a great job posting a new one almost daily for the 24 days. Unfortunately I didn’t knit them as fast as she did so I only finished the number I needed for gifts.

But she did inspire me, I knit seven from her patterns, then I made a grid and charted my own design for an angel (which I wanted for my daughter’s collection and Bekki hadn’t gotten to that day yet) And I’m looking forward to finishing the rest of the set that she published.

As we end this year, I realize that I haven’t shared as many finished objects with you as I had planned. Thanks to those who have continued to follow me in spite of my inconsistency and a welcome to those who may have just stumbled upon my blog. Stay tuned, a new year gives me another chance to improve my blogging habits 🙂
Wishing everyone a Happy New Year! May Health and Happiness be yours.
Those bags are lovely!
I guess I’ll put them on my list to knit throughout the year 🙂
Happy new year to you!

They are a fun knit, I should keep going on them but have switched to stocking up for next year’s craft shows, we try to average about 20 a year,so that’s why I wasn’t around much for a while. Lots of reading to catch up on too.
Have a great year.

These look wonderful. Even with an average of 20 craft shows a year also looking forward to more shared, finished projects here in 2017. Bev, the best to you and yours in the New Year!

🙂 I have pictures taken and more to take of FO’s from 2016! (Some have sold but I tried to take pictures before they went to shows-just didn’t get them as far as my computer)
Thanks for the wishes and encouragement Bruce, and the same to you and your family.
