When you know you got it right!

How do you know you got exactly what they wanted!  How.......Just look at the smiles on their faces!

It says it all.

Mom  is still trying to figure out how I made her gloves.   How ... easy I tell her.  And it was. Got the pattern out of the book "The knitter's bible"
She called this morning and told me how much she loved her gifts. Job well done. Yippee to me!



Oldest daughter LOVED her mini laptop! She thinks its the cutest thing she has ever seen.
I got this great shot right after she figured out what it was. It was priceless!




And then young son.... Surround sound.
He was so surprised.  Both were extremely excited and happy!

I hope you had the same great feelings. That you found everything you wanted under your tree. 
Hope there were blessing on top of blessings.



                                                                                                                          Christmas goes so fast. We prepare and buy and make and in an instant, its over. But the pictures and the feelings, they last a lifetime!


This is hubby's scarf. The noro one that everyone is making. It was a really fun scarf. I gave it to him just like the picture, but finished it up Christmas morning and he was able to wear it to my mom's.  Along with his first pair of handmade socks. Which he said were the best pair of socks he has ever worn. He is a hand knit sock virgin. And has become addicted. Asking if there might be more in his future.  
So with that said, I picked up my, 2 at time socks.
And as soon as I finish here I am going to try that method.  I will keep you posted! 
Keep warm and keep knitting! The fun months are just ahead!!!
