Mark off another

I finished another Christmas gift, YAY. This means I get to mark off another on the list over there. I finished up these Fingerless gloves and they turned out pretty. Hopefully, the person will like them!


Pattern: Snowflake Fingerless Gloves (ravelry link)
Mods: I didn’t do the fingers, instead I repeated the ribbing for the cuff and I also did this on the thumb
Yarn: Wildfoote Sock Yarn in White


Now for more news on the 850 Operation we are wrapping it up this weekend and should have everything mailed by Monday. You say everything? Uhh Yes…the picture above is my living room and it’s driving me crazy. It’s filled with boxes that gotta go out lol. I did clear out the tub tonight and get all that boxed and ready to go. Right now I have 5 boxes and prolly will have a 6th unless I go out and get bigger boxes.

All we have left to do is finish putting the cards in individual baggies. This way when they reach Becky she will just have to put a stocking in them. Some baggies with cards also contain the leftover candy we had, we also have stickers, and a local dentist donated TONS of gum. As you can tell the kids are also helping with the baggie process, I’m not sure how much longer I’ll have their cooperation on this but so far they are remembering why we are doing it and know it’s for a good reason.


Here is a photo of some of the stockings that we have stuffed. This shows a stocking from Denise, Bobbie, Hilde, Jeanette, mom, and myself. I’m calling mom a Coshocton knitter for this : ). We did 80 stockings woohooo, you guys rock!


In this photo is all the stockings I received from mom she sent 15 to me so we could bag and then is sending her others on to Becky.

Again, I can’t say how thankful I am for you all. You guys are awesome!! : )
