Happy December everyone!
It's December already? When did that happen?
Lucky for me I'm moving right along on these Christmas presents. I finished up the Jaywalkers.
And, of course, started on another pair. I recently bought the Favorite Socks book from Interweave. I'm already in love with this book. It's so convenient to have all these great sock patterns in one book. I decided to make the Uptown Boot Socks with Knit Picks Gloss.
I'm changing the pattern slightly to make short row heels and toes, other than that I'm leaving it alone. It's such an easy pattern too. Very fun to knit.
In completely unrelated news, the boy and I went to the symphony last night to see The Nutcracker Suite. I think it's the first time this season that I've actually started feeling like it's Christmas. Personally, I think retailers ring in the holidays just a tad too early (*read= extremely early) that it kills the feeling sometimes. But anyway, we had a very nice evening and the show was well done and entertaining. It was a nice way to welcome in December.

You are just chugging along there with your gifts! Way to go!
I love the Nutcracker! Your socks look great (all of them).
Great socks! You mean you don't want to hear Christmas songs on Labor Day? :-)
Nice socks!
I agree with you on the holidays. They start soooo early, it is sometimes hard to get into the mood.
The Jaywalkers look great with that yarn. I've been meaning to check out the IK sock book.
the new socks are adorable! all about stripes ;)
Those look great! How do you like Gloss? I've had mixed luck with their yarn...what do you think?
Tag! Details are on my blog. I am totally the last person in the world to do this meme. Hope your holiday knitting is going well :)
Love those delightful jaywalkers!
Socks are a good thing.
The jaywalkers are so cute! I envy your productivity. And the purple is a KnitPicks yarn? Very nice.
