I received some photos from people who received gifts from me. I am always pleased when the recipients can, at least, be bothered to look happy when they open a gift I have made.<\/p>\n

Remi and Murdock got the Nighthawk<\/a> and Cosmic Wonder Dust<\/a>, respectively. I sent them, along with the others, up to Portland and the YM distributed them. I didn’t get photos of the other recipients, but will perhaps soon.<\/p>\n

\"Bamboo<\/a>

My sister also got a scarf as well. I sent her Christmas gifts in a box wrapped up with a note that hell would freeze over and she would be sucked into a pit of lava if she opened her Christmas gifts before Christmas. She used to have such a hard time waiting and, of course, I have no way to monitor her actions. To mollify dear Sis, I sent along the bamboo scarf<\/a> that started me off on this crazy 2017 knitting<\/a> journey. She has been freezing this winter and it looks like it is long enough. I am not sure it goes with the jersey, but to each his own fashion choices.<\/p>\n

I also sent off the Sparkle Pink quilt<\/a>. A friend’s son died and I decided to send Sparkle Pink to her daughter. I had it available and thought it would be a comfort.<\/p>\n

I love this quilt. I really love the fabrics, but it was made from a pattern (not my own design) and doesn’t really go with my decor. The recipient loves it and that makes me happy. This is a quilt that needed to go off into the world and bring happiness. The room in which it now lives will be redecorated to match.<\/p>\n
