are you beginning to see the color trend here??

wouldn't you know that just when i come back from a long knitting break, i can't show you pictures of my progress because they are holiday knits! i can't take the chance that my gift recipients might be reading :)

i can show you the choxi chocolate that i bought from target. i picked the colors to coordinate with my living room of course! i am beginning to realize i just might be a bit to matchy matchy in my design choices. oh well. i tried one of them and didn't find the chocolate to be that great. i still like my frans.



i did get the new holiday knitting book from the gal that did the weekend knitting book. i don't own weekend knitting, there just wasn't enough in there i wanted to knit. this book however is a different story. i am working on a small project from it now and have many others flagged. i see many of you out in blogland bought it too. i can't wait to see what people knit up. i'll be checking out the knitalong site (although i probably won't get around to joining it myself) that jessica has created.



and i couldn't help but show off my new martha baking book. it is a good one! my friend jan made some of the white cupcakes with strawberry frosting, holy cow, they were EXCELLENT! the frosting was amazing. i bought my copy at costco.

i don't think i posted about this little guy last year. i bought him at bunnies by the bay. i was thinking it would be a cute knitted gift. i never got around to analyzing it too much, but i think it would be pretty easy. don't you think?



on exciting blogland news, i just read that amy of amylovie's nuttin' but knittin' is opening a yarn shop! oh my! good luck amy! i think it is wonderful you are following your heart :)

Thank you so much for you sweet comment Amy. I'm very excited about my future, and am optimistic that the shop is going to bring a lot of joy to my life.

I think the knitted snowman is adorable. With your talent, I have no doubt that you can figure it out. The question is, will you have time with all of your other activities?!?

That is such a cute knitted snowman. I think Amy's right, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out!

What a sweet doll! Yes, I think with some study, it shouldn't be hard to make one like it.

So I'm trying to figure out what the cover of your MS book says - so far, my best guess is "Martha Stewart, Big Hands". Am I right? :)
