It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year...

Most days, you can find me, from morning until night, sitting on the couch, surrounded by a minimum of five knitting projects.  It must be that time...

Yes!  It's Christmas Knitting Rush time!

I probably have one of the longest couches ever made (8 feet long), and from October on, no one is allowed to sit there.  Except me.  And my many projects.

On the go right now:  A cabled cushion for my sister...A raspberry cowl for donation...A multi-colored headband...A blanket - multi-colored - for another sister...A Size 2 hoodie in dark turquoise...A gray and white-striped cowl...
And, of course, another dozen or so balls of yarn for my pending projects.  I'm showing incredible self-discipline, because I haven't started any NEW projects.  Yet.

(But don't get me wrong.  In a corner of my bedroom are a whack of old projects that have been set aside, until I get past my Christmas rush...)

It's crazy, isn't it?  My hands stay busy for at least 12 hours a day, and still I'm anxious to get onto new things.

Today, I took an order for a lap afghan, and a matching scarf and cowl, for a boyfriend/girlfriend gift.

That's okay.  It's the weekend.  I can stay up all night, if I wish.
