What does that mean for me? Extra projects. I have found myself full of special orders, ideas/plans for my work's craft fair, and on top of it all, I'm hoping to get some Christmas presents finished. Luckily, I started working on Christmas gifts as early as last January, so I've already got a fair amount of them done. Now I'm just on the last minute ideas.
Meanwhile, I have 3 orders I'm trying to finish up before Thanksgiving (if possible). I know they are for Christmas gifts, so I want to try to have them completed early. I'm feeling pretty good about them, as long as I get some time to finish them. Gotta buckle down. My friend Mary is in a similar situation, so we're going to hang out soon and have a knit night. We did it once before and it was pretty fun. Find some cheesy movie, catch up, and finish a project. My favorite quote of the day from her: "If I wasn't married, I'd want to be your roommate so we could knit." Apparently my certifiably insane work ethic provides great motivation for completing projects :)
Speaking of completed projects, I recently finished a pair of baby alpaca gloves, just like my gray ones, except this time in purple. My friend Sam bought them on the spot the day after I finished them. I hope she likes them :) She's the sweetest cause she even agreed to purchase them through my etsy shop!
One last thing before I finish this post... I recently commissioned and purchased a tote bag from my co-worker Judy. It's so absolutely adorable that I just had to post a photo of it here. I've started using it to hold all my IP projects. I needed a big bag to fit them all!
