They're obviously a work in progress, but I LOVE how they're turning out!

Cong-Fu Rocks my Socks!
So I ended up selling 3 hats that day! YES! It was amazing to be invited to join such an awesome and talented group of ladies!! Seriously thank you so much!
I'm working on a boy's Hudson hat for the next stocking, so keep posted!
I just finished some shorties for Gabe. I bought the yarn up in Washington, and finalllllllllllly finished them today! I'm still working on the icord for the tie, but you get the picture!
So they're far from perfect, but they're a vast improvement over the first longies I made for G! These are going to fit him this summer, unless a massive growth spurt happens!
I'm going to make my friend Heather some pants for her little man! They're called "Lucky Star" (Thanks Barb for the name!) They will be awesome! I ordered the yarn yesterday, so hopefully soon, like maybe tomorrow?, the yarn will be here and I can start!

Mission: Accomplished!
So I have completed a seemingly impossible task. I have knit my first pair of (wearable) LONGIES!!! My goal for my Christmas break was such, and I did it! And Gabe can not only wear them, but they look cute on him!! He is actually, for the record, wearing them right now as I type! I used my gorgeous Malabrigo yarn from Annie Amelia, and seriously they're cute!
Ok, so they're a little like skinny jeans, but that's OK! He can wear them and not look too terribly funny! I'm working on a hat for my dad right now, it's a long funny story that I will post someday! And then on Kenzie's Hudson hat! I balled the first hank of scrappy yarn! It's going to be cute, I hope!

SO much craftin' going on!
So I've been busy! Seriously, busy, knitting. I was also sick. I ended up with 8 hats for the show, 4 away from my goal (but I was sick for 3 days, so I am sure had I not been SO sick, I could have met my goal!) and 8 Gingerbread ornaments! Oh man! I love everything that I've knit! I also knit a Hudson for my Etsy store and am knitting a custom Hudson right now! I am meeting with a local mama today or tomorrow to pick up some yarn from her, so I can knit her little girl a hat and some mittens! Eep! So excited! (She's like my first REAL, non friend customer!!!)
I might also have another custom coming up, for a friends' son in WA! We'll see!
