Phew! Less than two weeks from Christmas and I’m still hard at it! I still have lots of orders but I know I’ll have them all finished in time. I’m very lucky to have so many trusting (and patient!) customers. I’ve been crocheting/knitting so much that my hands/arms/shoulders are sore but there’s no rest for the wicked right?
I don’t think I’ve watched an episode of Pokémon since I was a teenager and was babysitting kids who watched the show but I was asked to make a couple of Pokémon hats- a Pliplip (penguin) and a Teddiursa (bear). Don’t ask me what they do because I honestly couldn’t tell you. I’m very pleased with how they turned out though.
With most of my character hats, I do the faces in appliqué. This is what makes them look so clean. It takes more time but it appeases my OCD.. haha.
Gotta catch ’em all! (And yes, I googled that.. haha)
This order will result in two happy little girls with very warm heads this Christmas! 🙂
Other than orders there’s just been a lot of the usual- tree decorating, card addressing, gingerbread house decorating.. although I think “On Top of the Microwave Dive” is a bad area of town, one of the gingerbread men has gone missing (perhaps he was enjoyed with a glass of eggnog) you’ll be seeing his face on little gingerbread milk cartons before too long!
