Christmas in the works...

Either sales or Christmas. Im thinking I really need to work on making things to sell. My boyfriend thinks he's with a potential gold mine and thinks we're going to be rich one day by selling my knitting! Somehow I don't think so, but a girl can dream! Here's the first thing Im making to sell....



There will be a match to this one! Next will be pillow cases. I like the way the one I made has sewn up (the 3 sides I have done so far that is... I need to think of a good way to attach wool to a zipper to do the last side).

May Day

Its May 1st.... which gets me thinking of SUMMER! But then after summer is Christmas.... and that means I'd better get knitting pressies for the family. friends, boyfriend....

Slippers are a given, they're fast and easy but the boy's mom wants Black Mittens, so Black Mittens I shall make. And Im thinking my dad and his girlfriend would probably appreciate matching mittens for under their snowmobile mitts....

What to make my own Mom? Im thinking that pillow as her present...but not sure how to sew knitting onto fabric...any advice?
