...so this is pretty much where I was with Sock #2 on Christmas Eve Eve...
...but I managed to finish them before the Christmas Eve service...
...I managed to get all of the charted bits out of the duller red colour...but you can see that the heel, toe and stripes are all done in a brighter red cotton that I happened to have on hand...oh well...those parts don't show too much...and maybe they will fade some with wash and wear...
...and I also ran out of the duller white mid-large-snowflake...so I switched to the slightly softer and thicker and brighter white...but I'm OK with it...I still think they turned out super cute and Christmas-y...
...and this is how I wore them to the Christmas Eve service...see my shoes don't show the smaller snowflake at all...
...and the only other little bit of elving that I did on Christmas Eve was to finish up Amy's dish towel...it's just the like the other ones I did with the love-heart-tree pattern...so super easy...
...and her little gift is the only one still under the tree...because Our Girl and I went over to the Church to put away the Christmas Eve communion things...and we missed Amy when she came by to exchange our little gifts...my car was gone because the kiddos had taken it to run some errands so she thought that I wasn't here...and so she left my gift on the back porch...and weirdly during that same 20 minutes I missed a phone call from my sweet Sissie in the Bahamas...oh well...I've caught up with both of them since...
...what's in your workbasket?...are you starting a new project for the new year...or are you taking a breather after the Christmas rush...
~Have a lovely day!
Your socks did turn out super-cute and glad you got to use up some of your bits from your stash. No projects in my basket at all! Love, K
