What, Too Busy!?

Yeah, that's right, I've simply been too busy to update! I haven't even tried to develop a new pattern, sheesh. I've been working at the 9-5 and whipping up Christmas gifts galore. Several of which I wish I'd have thought of making for my self. They came out so darn cute so far.

Mostly I've been trying to use up left over skeins because my mom is sending my her scrap material along with my daughters birthday presents. Oh, my goodness, my daughter is almost one. I can't even say that out loud without tearing up about it. How'd it happen? Where'd the time go? She was so small and new and beautiful just MONTHS ago. Now, 12 of them later, she's her own little person. She loves to share, dance, chase the cats, share with the cats, play in Mommy's scrap yarn. (I'm starting her early :)) Now look. As every parent does, I tried so hard to hold on. But, no matter how tight you hold, or how many hours you spend staring mesmorized and memorizing each little thing, it all happens so fast.

Here and I've gone way off topic, let's bring it back. Where was I? Ah, yes. Utilizing quarter skeins and less. Good thing many of my friends are bringing babies into this world after Christmas, and baby beanies take up just enough material to finish a skein with style.

Well, off I go, on another hook-a-plooza and make a few more gifts so I can take custom requests for other folks' gifts. I hope every one has a blessed and wonderful day, Happy Hooking!
