Christmas Gifts!

Merry Christmas Brian 2014

This is the second year of the "what do you want me to make you for Christmas" challenge.  The day after Christmas, I ask my dear husband this simple question.  This year the answer was one word:  Socks.  Here they are!  I finished the first one before Thanksgiving, so it was wrapped for Christmas morning.  The second was only a few days late, done on December 29th.

Here's the pattern I used:  Border Socks

I used a yarn called Heritage by Cascade yarns.  It's a sock yarn made out of superwash merino and nylon.  I purchased the yarn from WoolWorks in downtown Putnam:  WoolWorks Yarn Shop

Hand turned Niddy Noddy from my dear husband.  I love it!

And for me, did I mention my husband is a wood worker?  I hung up a picture from a magazine of a Niddy Noddy for him to use for inspiration.  Although I have lived a very full and rich life without one this far, I really wanted to have a Niddy Noddy that he made for me.  So here it is, my perfect and beautiful new Niddy Noddy.  I love it!  It was done on Christmas Day!  He's that good.
