Whew!
I managed to finish the two
pairs of slippers on time for an
early family Christmas exchange.
I did not do them perfectly,
but at least they are warm, colourful...
Ravelry here.

I am still getting the 1 row ribbed stitch down.
Basically I would get confused to what row I was in,
one that starts with K1 or
one that starts with P1.

I made them a little too big but my
brother in law says he can shrink them in the wash...

I am working on my third pair of slippers now
and so far so good!
It always takes me a while to learn a new pattern!

I have just gotten this book in the mail:
Donald Hall is one of my long time beloved poets
and I am so glad to have this book
that is such a wonderful capturing of what
Christmas was like in New England in early 1900's.
Lucy's Christmas is one that I discovered
and then ordered inexpensively on Alibris.
I ordered a few of the books,
including the one above,
after reading Katherine's post on
her Christmas basket of books.
*
I am so excited for the Nativity Fast
and reading Christmas books!
