Christmas knitting

I promised to show you my Christmas knitting. Each person got two knitted items. The trick was – they had to choose their own. What was meant to be a secret game quickly became a funny free-for-all. Everyone seemed to love what they chose from "Santa’s Bag."

And then there were the beer socks.

I did not finish the second sock by Christmas Eve.

Happily, sock one fit perfectly, and I quickly finished up sock two (it’s much faster when you can knit in public). As you can see, I ran out of the dark brown Jacob. Rather than spin more, I used up the leftover bits of gold yarn. And there is just enough left for future repairs (I expect these socks to get worn).
