I think I need to have a bit more light, this is taken from the other side of the room, the tree has been put up downstairs in the rumpus room, which #2 son and girlfriend use as their loungeroom.This one shows the boxes from where the decorations are kept, now just to get them packed back away till after Christmas.
I received my Tribe gift from Lisa yesterday, thank you so much, I really have to learn to spin now, I think I have everything I need, but a bit of knowledge would be advantageous. I got some beautifully coloured rovings to spin (help), some lovely stitch markers, a CHOCOLATE Yummy! I am taking it to work to have during the day (well as long as it will last once opened) and some garden soap, now Lisa I know I said I have a lot of gardening to do, now I will have to get a move on and do it, and this soap will be so good to wash up with, thank you so much for the lovely gifts, you really did give me things I like.
Aren't they just great colours together, I wish I had great colour sense, to put colours like this together.
DH took this picture of me on Saturday night we were ready to go to the HOG christmas party.
All the Aussie tribe members little gift for christmas have been posted so hopefully they will receive them this week.
And finally, but still not finished this is how much I have done with Lucky for my #1 daughter in-law (no they are not married, but have lived together for nearly 5 years so I class her as my daughter in-law), her birthday was Monday and her party this Saturday, I have plans to get it finished tonight.
Christmas Knitting still to get done, Dad's blanket, then I have to find some wool that will felt well and make two felt wine socks, so I guess my cotton top and the one for #2 son's girlfriend (who lives at our place) will have to wait, as there are only 11 more knitting nights left and we have some nights out in that, and I don't finish work for my holidays until Thursday 22 December.

A 6.47am post! Hooly dooley Annie what are you doing??
Glad you like all the pressies. I can't take the credit for the colour of the rovings...that goes to Miss Rachel Meek...she's the colour star! I just picked what I thought you may like...more a luck thing than anything else.
And I just realised that the gardeners soap may suggest that you get super messy! Oh dear, not that at all. It's just that it smells pretty!! :-)
Anyway, enjoy the day with the chocolate!
Thanks Lisa, and yes I do get really messy when I garden, I wear gardening gloves now , as my hands use to get way to dirty and it isn't good to knit with old dirty crack hands..hahah.
Ooooh - that's the roving - I'm buying some tomorrow from Lisa! Can't wait!

Great yarn, do you know what you are going to make with it all?
How nice to have space for your tree, our poor thing has been shoved into the corner.
