Place Me On Your Shelf

I tried, I really did. It’s too close to christmas to start a yarn diet. I have way too many things left to finish.

1. 2 commissions from much longer ago than they should be.
2. Pair of sock for my grandmother
3. pair of socks for my mother-in-law
4. pair of gloves for my mother.
5. Maybe a hat for my grandfather.
6. I would need to sew a gunsock for my father-in-law.
7. My sister-in-law M will get a gift certificate to Sephora
8. sister-in-law S will get a duffel bag with horses on it for when she runs track or visits friends
9. Brother-in-law J1 will get a game, courtesy of husband’s paycheck
10. Brother-in-law J2 will get… I guess whatever husband decides. I have no idea what to get him.
11. Stepsister A and her husband shall get a card with some cash.
12. Stepsister S will get a card with some cash, and an invitation to write while she is deployed.
13. Father and stepmom…. we get them butter cookies every year. I think I want my little brother to get those for him this year, and I’ll get him something from Pittsburgh Popcorn. (best ever!)

That covers family. Then I have friends. As much as I want to get all of my friends stuff, it really doesn’t work that way… I may send some boxed cookies for a few friends, and then some random things to others.

I will post them as I finish them, but I have to get those commissions done first. (I say this, but goodness, does it ever happen? Hopefully. I have a ten day break coming up where I’ll be down in my hometown in West Virginia. I will probably take my sewing machine so I can get some work done.

Now for some pictures of yarn!
