    Counting up, 1/2 way there 

    I have now finished through Day 12 of the Advent box, yarn sets and striped sock yarn, I want to find a pattern for the Advent mini-skeins. School is winding down, and I think that I will have time now to start one of the Advent mini-skeins. the Hue Loco one is calling me. My afternoon is searching for that perfect pattern.

    Day 9

    Day 10

    These were Alpaca socks that I bought at the Michigan Fiber Fest last summer. Will be very cozy for the winter.

    Day 11

    Koigu skein of yarn, pretty Christmas colors. Destined to become a pair of fingerless mitts.

    Day 12

    I have not finished the 12th Advent stripe on the socks. Normally I knit top down socks, and have my lengths down to a science. Starting at the toe is not my go-to and I am not sure where exactly to put the salvage yarn to do the after-thought heel. I am thinking mid-point of the day 11 stripe. Still muddling this over. And the Herman the German roasted almonds are one of my favorite treats!

    5,6,7,8 

    I need to catch up on my Adventing. I continue to surprise myself with what I put into the Advent re-used box.

    Day 5

    And the Advent self-striping socks from Cozy Knitter. This is absolutely the best Advent item. It is a very busy time of the year for me, and I can always find the time to knit 4 rows on the 2 pairs of socks. By Christmas, I will have a pair of socks to gift out. As a bonus, this yarn will make 2 pair of Advent socks. I still have the remainder from last year to knit up.

    Day 6

    Yummy caramels

    Day 7

    Needle point guards, and more beautiful mini-skeins.

    Day 8

    One of many Coco Knits products, stitch markers. And the Moonglow rainbow continues.
