I had Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and the day after off from work so I had plenty of knitting time. I mainly worked on the Ballet Cami and the Sweet Baby Hat.
This is the status of the Cami with our new pet. He is the Webkinz Beagle that I got for the hubby. He loves beagles. I just finished the second skein and have attached the third. It is going by really fast now. I finished the decreases and am doing the increases until I get to the armholes.
I really need to try to work on the hat more because I need to finish it but it seems like it is taking forever. I think it is because it is with fingering weight yarn. Usually hats don’t take me any time at all but this is the first time I am using this light weight of a yarn.
I am supposed to get my Options needles today since I was not able to pick them up over the weekend. I forgot that we were closed for three days when I had them sent to my office so I had to wait. They actually shipped pretty fast for Knit Picks but they happened to get here on Saturday and the post office holds the mail for my office until we are open again. I went to try and pick them up but the stupid post office said I wasn’t on the list. There is no list!! There are like 5 people in the office and we are all like family. I seriously doubt that the owners would care who picked up the mail but they still wouldn’t let me take it. So I will get them today along with the package from my sister. I am not too worried about what case comes with the set anymore because I found someone on Ravelry that would be willing to trade is she gets that black case that I wanted. She actually wants the cheap plastic case. At least it will work out for both of us.

Hi Michele! Hope you had a great holiday! We are also a webkinz family of 6! Everyone has one here at our house! I got my Options set for Christmas! I can't wait to try them out! Mine came with the black binder, guess the hubby ordered it just in time!
Wow! I have a feeling you'll be wearing your cami before I even cast on for mine! Glad you had a few days off to relax after the nutty month or so before Christmas.
I can't wait to hear how you like your Options. I knit exclusively with mine.
My kids and husband are always reciting lines from the Christmas Story. It's a great movie. That's awesome that you got to hear from your sister. The color for your ballet cami is gorgeous and at the rate your going it will be done soon.
Merry Christmas, Michelle. Love the colors of yarn that you're using. It matches your blog!
