on and off the needles

 It is time to prioritize which projects need to be finished before Christmas. Socks for me, socks for someone special, reading mitts for someone special, gloves just to see how knitting the fingers work what is a finger on a glove? a thumb without a gusset?!? it can't be that hard.  A couple super secret projects that won't be blogged  until after Christmas................De-clutter the kitchen and dining room, plan Thanksgiving menu, buy groceries, get cooking......
The colors started stacking up in an interesting pattern as I knit the gusset and heel then it was back to the same old color pattern. The heel just naturally folds into a funny face when I fold the socks in half.
I finished my scarf, hat and mitts to go with my boiled wool coat and has been too cold to wear it with a temperature rating of +20 degrees, I'll just have to put a cozy sweater on then the coat. Linking to Judy's OTN and see all the cozy knits.  --Ann--
