Penguin Pal


Just finished this little penguin toboggan in the nick of time to get it wrapped and under the tree for Little Man!



I had such fun knitting this little guy!!! I cannot wait to see it on Little Man... I'm thinking it may be a bit big... but, then again... maybe not! He grows SO much between times that I get to see him.



Now that the fun knitting is over... back to the afghan that I started (to go with the new color scheme)... and may have jumped in over my head. The line in the pattern book is this: "Repeat after me: I can do this! And, you can, too!" No lie. That is verbatum. We'll see.




It is supposed to end up 54 inches long... man, I have a long way to go! And, it is a booger (at least for me)! Well, I have used up all my spare lunch moments playing on this blog. I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas filled with lots of love, peace, joy, comfort and fun! And, food! ;-) Merry Christmas to all!

So cute! I must look for a sweater to match it so that he'll be all color coordinated.

Sure wish I knew how to knit. Where I live, it's so rural the knitting shops opened & closed w/in a few yrs of ea other so there isn't anywhere to learn. wah.

CG: I picked up a book and some yarn... self-taught. I know if I can, you can!! No doubt!

That turned out just precious. My nana has knitted several hats/sweaters for Jackson - still a little big but I bet he'll be wearing them next winter! So sweet to have something to wear that was made with love!

Oh so cute and precious for Alex! I can't wait to see a pic of him all decked out in Penguin!

And I LOVE the new photo of the bungalow decked out for Christmas. Just beautiful and so festive!

How cute. Thanks for stopping by my blog. And I wish you were a close neighbor too. For one I'd love to be back in Texas - I miss it terribly. Also, I could learn to knit while you eat cookies..good trade.
