I still have hand sewing to complete, adding the buttons the ornaments hang on, and preparing the dowel this advent calendar will hang on, trim the extra felt away from the sides and bottom, and I have three more ornaments to complete. Sounds like a lot when I put it that way, but I’ll have it all done except the last three ornaments, by Friday.
It looks pretty cute, all things considered. Very happy with the way it has turned out.
These are the ornaments I finished this last long weekend. I took a 4-day weekend for knitting purposes. Much fun was had.
A christmas tree ball, miniature version of a bead knitted purse, a wreath, mitten decorated with a rose and leaves, a fairisle sweater, and a star.
Still to come are a candy cane, a macrame jingle bells hanging, and I guess a santa. I have ideas for a lot of other ornaments but that is going to be the final line-up. I have a pattern for a crochet rose if I can figure out how to read the pattern. It’s been so many years I’ve forgotten how to do that.
All are so adorable! but the toque is still my fav:)
I like what you have done. this will be for you are your friend? I still do to have a tree. After Kirsten moved to Alaska just never wanted one. Donnie and Kathy came over last weekend and put lights on the bushes on my front year. I have all my naughty anger on my fireplace. There are 35 now. 7 for you kids, 16 grandchildren and 12 great ones. Grandma Kidd started the angles for her grandchildren.
