Holy Smokes, it’s almost here…

I cannot believe Christmas is18 days away!
I have been knitting & crocheting my little hands to the bone. Tons of gifts, more than a few custom orders with more coming in daily.

Here are some of the custom orders that I have sent out in the last few weeks.

Adventure Time fingerless gloves, Finn knit hat, Jake knit hat

I did a turned hem on the Jake hat so that the colorwork would have a nice clean edge instead of ribbing.

A knitter friend from Santa Barbara asked me to do some maryjane slippers for her daughter; one Jake & one Finn. I think they turned out adorable! It was a lot of fun designing them.

This is an order for my dear childhood friend Cheryl. She ordered some fingerless gloves for her daughter, a cute slouchy Zig Zag hat, and a Batman beanie for her son. They are super fun!

Then Sadie decides to drop this design request in my lap for a Lady Rainicorn hat with the long sides that go down to gloves at the end. Wowza, looks like I will be super duper busy.

While I love all the custom work, the Adventure Time theme & duplicate stitch were a true test of my commitment ;o) My kids LOVE Adventure Time. They watch it pretty much daily. Josh can play & sing most of the songs on his guitars. I do believe my brain is on AT overload but never will I turn away a chance to design and knit or crochet an AT item.
It’s been fun to get items made for their kids, really one of a kind unique Christmas gifts.
I am just crossing my fingers I have time to make my kids & hubby some unique surprise gifts for Christmas! :oP
