Made it for Christmas

Driving down for Christmas to Vancouver was not one of our best ideas but we really wanted to spend some time with family. While on the road I was working away on the last project I had to finish, the scarf for my Brother-in-law. Since we were stopped on the highway in Abbotsford for 45 mins I decided to keep going on it. It got longer and longer and longer. Luckily he is a big guys and need a longer scarf. Everything turned out fine, we made it to Vancouver (and all the parties) and all my Christmas presents got finished. Except when said BIL tried on the scarf it still wasn't long enough. So back on the needles it went and I should finish it this week. My in law's will be going there next week so they will take it with them. Now on to bigger and better things. Or maybe I'll just finish the projects I started last year ..... haha

Projects left
1 scarf - got a good chunk done, but will probably be knitting on the drive down still

Christmas Cookie Baking

So my lovely husband signed us up for a Cookie Exchange at this work. We had to make 13 dozen cookies, OMG. So we made 2 batches of Peanut Butter Christmas Mice on the weekend and one more last night. I was planning on knitting more on the Christmas gifts but alas there was no time. But they are so cute!!!


Hopefully more knitting tonight!

Results of my big plan: Lots of photos uploaded, projects and stash updated, still in bags and buckets, but I feel better!
