Ok! Let’s try this out!
Now, just to review, as a knitting blogger who is planning on knitting a lot of presents this season, I’ve got to blog about what I’m working on, even if that involves people who read this blog. I can’t control what you read, but I can give you fair warning!
Mom, this post is about something I’m knitting for you! Whenever you see ‘Christmas Present Update: Mom’, it means I’m going to be writing about what I’m making for you! So turn away now
I’m also sticking with my plan to write a lot at the beginning of the blog, so as to not blow it with a picture right at the top, for accidental finding.
Now.
I saw this super cute Knitting Needle Knitting Bag on ravelry the other day and fell in love with it!

Knitting Needle Knitting Bag
How cute is that? The women on ravelry had it lined in cute fabric and were painting their knitting needles before making them the handles! I had to knit it. For my mom.

Two Sides Completed!

Berry Stitch
This knit up very quickly. The berry stitch is fun to do and before I knew it I had one side completed. I got some bamboo needles and loved how they looked with the bright green Vanna’s Choice yarn. I’m working on the handles now, which are supposed to be garter stitch, but I didn’t like how that was looking so, hold your breath, I’m making seed stitch handles. I’m three inches into handle one, and so far so good! We’ll see how I’m feeling after 21″ each handle.
I haven’t picked out the fabric to line it yet, but I’ve got a huge stash that I can’t wait to look through!
So Mom, if you are reading this, I hope you like it!
… grr.
