November Wrap-Up, December Plans
Let's start with a check-up on those old November goals:
1. Finish the Possum Socks. Not done. I had to put this project on hold because, true to form, I ran short of yarn. Luckily Jeannine came through for me and sent me a spare ball of superwash from her stash to complete the project. I think these are going on the Christmas gift list.
2. Finish Midwest Moonlight scarf for myself. Done! I really love this scarf. I wear it around town and I think to myself, "why isn't everyone swooning over this scarf?" But I guess it takes a knitter to appreciate such an awesome design.
3. Start gloves for Nona's Peaceful Palms Knit-Along. Not done... not even started. Although I noticed that there is a glove pattern on the new Knitty (urban rustic gloves) that looks interesting. (Actually, that whole issue looks great!)
DECEMBER GOALS
1. Christmas Knitting. I said I wouldn't do it this year, but I made a hat and it was so fun and easy... Now I am about 12 inches into a self-designed scarf for my grandma and I am forcing myself to finish those friggin Possum Socks in time to put under the tree.
2. Do I really need any other projects? I would like to start Cutaway, but the small needles are scaring me! Also, I have some really big projects at work that are going to be taking up lots of time over the next week.
If I can get that Christmas knitting done, it will be enough. That's the gift of peace, people.

You'll have the socks done in no time and the scarf is beautiful. Good luck getting those other things done and small needles shouldn't scare you; they're exactly the same as big ones and you use small ones to make socks!
