Just in case you haven't seen everything, here's a purple crochet Cabbage Patch-inspired pigtail hat.
I did, in fact, make that. And I also, in fact, wasn't sure I'd like the end result. But holy smokes, it's beautiful. I want one for myself, but realize it's probably not appropriate for a woman of 30 (at least for wearing to work).

Hubby and I took Fritzy to visit Santa at PetSmart over the weekend. Doesn't he look just thrilled? Believe it or not, he was a good little boy who spent his time sniffing kittens in their cages, Santa, and a little girl doggie who was waiting in line to have her photos taken - while wearing a Christmas onesie. They bonded.

Ho Ho Ho! A hand-knit Santa Claus to help you treasure your cards of cheer the whole season!
Good morning, everyone, and Happy Friday! Isn't it always a wonderful feeling to be done with the work week and feel excitement over which project you're going to start up/work on/finish up/leave to die over the weekend?
I'm proud to say that I finished this little (huge) guy up last weekend. I've been working on him for two years. Yes, you read that correctly: two years. It just seemed like one thing after another kept getting in the way.

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree - It took several hours to decorate you!
Behold my weekend's worth of work! Okay, okay - Hubby helped out, too, by bringing everything up from the basement. But the beautiful decorations are all me :) Martha Stewart, eat your heart out!
(Speaking of, did you know that Hulu Plus has a bunch of Martha Stewart Christmas specials available? I'm not going to lie; I indulged in a few of them over the weekend in between decking the halls and crafting).
And as I write this, I'm taking a break from knitting up some custom orders just in time for Christmas before starting on some gifts of my own. If you're a friend of mine on Facebook, you've probably already seen some of my crafts. But if not, I'll be posting them as I get pictures taken throughout the month - only the ones I can, of course. I don't want to spoil any surprises!
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Tonight, I'll be setting in with the lighting of the Christmas tree in Rockefeller Center, followed by some Saturday Night Live holiday classics. Thank goodness for the holidays!
