[Nfb-krafters-korner] FQ: Are you crafting gifts for the holidays?

[Eileen Scrivani]

Hi:

I haven't made any knitted gifts specifically for Christmas.  As usual I 
don't think about it until the last minute and then I find there's never 
enough time to make them.  As it did turn out, totally by accident, the cozy 
knitted house shoes I made for Gail's class and my first little knifty 
knitter hat for Cindy & Henry's class were done in the color Burgundy so 
they just turned out very Christmas looking.  I've donated them to my shawl 
group to go to our sister parish for underprivileged children & adults.  I 
have another little baby cardigan I made from Home Spun yarn (not in 
Christmas colors). I made this project in less than a week and did it as an 
experiment in shaping and seaming.  My plan is that it will also get donated 
and hope given out at Christmas.

Eileen
