I have done some Christmas knitting since the summer, A cardigan for DD2 and a snuggle blanket for DD1 which although is cast off and sewn in needs to be unpicked and finished off differently. I have 3 pairs of socks to do ( 1 man sized) but they won't really matter if they don't get done. I'm away on holiday for 10 days in the middle of November but I have a FCS scheduled for that.

Good luck everyone.

I have Mary and Jesus knit for the nativity, hoping to get the manger and Joseph done by the end of the week. Yet to sew anything up though.

LOL, I hadn't realised the Christmas Knitalong Police would be carrying out regular progress checks! Shocked

But I think you can be excused lack of progress if you've been making a wedding cake looby Razz

I've finished the first sock of Mr FC's pair, and done the ribbing on the second. That's just a plain vanilla man-sized sock so nothing complicated. And I have dug out the yarn for the socks for my sister, just need to cast them on. They'll be a plain vanilla pair too so easy train/telly knitting Very Happy

Oooo

I didn't mean to sound like the progress police Embarassed

Trouble is, I really need to keep myself on a tight rein this year - and I think reporting back to you lot on a weekly basis might be the only way of doing it Laughing

Whereas naturally I fall into Noo's camp - Christmas does seem like a long way off Very Happy

I have already knit two washcloths and am knitting DH a Cobblestone sweater. I want to knit my mum a scarf. She has arthritis and likes to keep her neck warm so I am looking at something that she can wear indoors.
