Can you believe it’s almost Christmas?
After my little knitting hiatus, I wanted to show you this pretty bit of fluff.
It’s black and grey and not blue.
Dang camera.
It’s Alpaca.
I am making another gardenview shawlette (like the yeti one) for my Dad’s GF for Christmas.
I would never ever have thought black and grey would qualify as a pretty shawlette, but it’s coming out AMAZING.
I am also confused how I wouldn’t think black and grey would work together being it’s about all I wear.
So I have to have this thing done before Thursday but I am about 10 yards from running out of that one skein of yarn.
The yarn shop is closed today.
So tomorrow you’ll know where I’ll be…and then crankin’ out the last 2 leaves and then blocking it and than wrapping it.
My one holiday knit is turning out to be a little problematic.
Good thing I have Gru as my mentor.
Because when you are a super-villian you don’t care necesarily if your leafy shawlette is done by Christmas.
You only care about stealing the Moon and having power.
All I want is that darn yarn store to open up, so I can finish my shawlette.

I wear an awful lot of gray and black myself!
Easier to mix and match! Glad to see a new post out here today! Happy Monday!

Cindy,
Black, grey and blue are my colors of choice (although my seven year old says that technically black and grey are not colors…)!
I have some Xmas knitting going too; 2/3 of a sleeve left on a sweater for DH, with concerns about running out of both yarn and time.
Post pics when you’re done please!
Merry Christmas my friend!

I’ve missed you! I hope you’re having a nice holiday season so far. I haven’t been knitting much this year, been doing more macrame and other crafts. Perhaps after x-mas!
