Sane people start their Holiday Knitting in the fall. Early in the fall.
Sane people know that Holday Knitting takes more time than, say, Holiday Shopping.
Sane people don't order the yarn for doing their Holiday Knitting in December.
Clearly, I'm not sane.
On Monday, the BOX arrived. It was a big box. Luckily for my pocket book, it contained yarn for three crazy knitters (we all ordered yarn in December; and at least two of us ordered for Holiday Knitting).
On Monday, I cast on for Holiday Knitting project number one. It's made from Rowan Wool Cotton 4Ply, in Inky.
Lurking in the box is a bunch of Valley Yarns Northhampton
And some Amherst
All that lovely yarn is going to miraculously become five more gifts. If the intended recipients of those gifts weren't known to read this blog now and then, I'd tell you more.
Query: Is it insane to plan to knit a half-dozen gifts starting on Dec. 10 when you imagine, even briefly, that each of five of those gifts will take no more than two evenings each, and the third is small ...
Possibly not.
But when at least two of them need to be shipped....
Sigh.
Check eBay for a transporter. That would solve the shipping problem.
