holiday frenzy

I have been scrambling to finish a sweater for myself, which was finally seamed up this afternoon. Just in time for the holidays! The pattern is Belfast, and it was theoretically a quick knit, if one has the time.

The boys and I have had a wonderful time making clementine candles, which have such a wonderful burnt citrus aroma.

I have been busy weaving a bunch of spa cloths on my little loom, to give as gifts with handmade soap.

My next post will include the super secret gifts I made the boys for the holidays (after they are unwrapped), but here is a picture of an adorable needle felted sheep we were given by a very dear woman.
