Duessa... do we get to see them? I laughed when I read about the tribbles, and had to do a search to see what they were - cute idea, I may have to try some of those myself!

Sounds like you are making good progress MamaDawn! Sorry about the

I need to learn about lifelines....

The only thing I want to make for Christmas is a stocking for my granddaughter. Hopefully, that will happen this year.

Do you have a special stocking picked out?

I cross-stitched my husband and my two boys stockings and never made one for myself.... maybe I will knit me one instead...

Yeah, I will post pics soon. I want to get the part that I put off (finishing bleh) done and then put it all on at once because I have to fight to get that done on my computer. lol

So, can I see some finished felted clogs? They are really making me wonder!

So, I'm also wondering, what would you make for someone that already has armwarmers and an ear warmer from you for christmas that ISN'T a scarf. I don't think I'll have TIME for a scarf! I want to make it out of the same yarn even though I hate the stuff because my mom loves it. It's Red Heart Monet. so gross to handle. lol

Anyway, I'll have at least one armwarmer done this weekend! Then I'll post. lol

Not yet. My hubby has several stockings that his mother made for his children. She can't knit anymore, so I'm thinking that I should make one for his grand-daughter that is the same style.

The stocking on the right was his from when he was a child. His grandmother made it for him.

The other three were for his kids. So, each time the stockings were made by a grandmother. I think I should continue the tradition.
