...BTW I have been trying to make a set of boot cuffs for my sister for Christmas, I will be starting my 4TH attempt this evening....Uggggg...wish me luck HAHAHAHAHA

Ah, boot cuffs , that's a good idea! I have never done anything in this colour before but they are for my sister-in-law and she likes purples so hopefully, she'll like them. The only problem is that they are a bit too tight, so I need to stretch them out before giving them to her. So, learning by doing!

[MENTION=9875]cefe13[/MENTION] FYI if you do hats I got these faux fur pom poms from Amazon. They SNAP onto the hat so you can remove to wash or change colors

Very nice hat! And a cute pom pom! Did you make the hat on a knitting loom?

Thank you! Yes, the round knitting loom. It's funny, they still refer to "knit" stitch and "pearl" stitch but since I don't know real knitting I'm not sure if the same :)

Lovely cosy blankets for winter! It is so relaxing to knit next to a snoring bulldog!

Thanks!! Boy is it ever relaxing!!! I have a big farmhouse table from which I can see the fireplace and Joey's chair, so.....kind of like a Christmas card :) Very relaxing!!
