The Christmas socks are coming along wonderfully. In fact the sock that is pictures is all finished and I am about 2 inches into sock number two!! Once this pair is finished I am only going to have 4 more knitted gifts to HAVE to have finished, anything else is just icing on the cake.
I have been wondering what knit to do for my oldest daughter, I would love it to be something she would wear, she is so sweet and would be so kind about whatever I knitted for her, but really I want her to use it. I had been toying with a scarf, but the thing is, is we live where the winters rarely get into the 40's for a high. She just doesn't have a need for a scarf, and she already has a shawl. Then, I found it, at least I think I did. The poor girl gets icy feet, what about these socks? Heavier weight yarn (which I have and it matches the sweaters I made for Fiona and Nuala) so they will keep her toes nice and cozy. Anyway, at the moment, that is the plan.
PS here are a couple photos of Fiona at her first soccer game, such a cutie

You are really rocking the Christmas knitting.
I think socks would be the perfect gift for your daughter and that looks like a great pattern.
that mix of blues and greens is really cool, striped socks are so awesome!
love those socks, can't go wrong with stripy socks lol
Knitpicks Felici? I just knit the same ones for myself. I can not wait to wear them!!! Yours are looking adorable. I'm so bummed that they don't sell that anymore.
I think the socks are a great idea! She will love them. Love the socks that you are nearly done knitting and first soccer game, so so so sweet!
Those socks are so pretty and look nice and cosy.
You are always such a great Christmas-inspiration! Maybe I will start. Or at least think about starting.... :)
