A Christmas Knit...Cozy




Miss Linda, my Secret Elf recipient, and my brother's girlfriend, is modeling the little beauty. The photos of just the Cozy are pre-blocking pics - I had a TERRIBLE time getting these photos posted, so forgive the layout. It's awful.

The specs are:
Pattern: Cozy
Fiber: 8 skeins of Knit Picks Wool of the Andes in Chestnut
Needles: size 8 US addi turbo circulars
Measurements: pre-blocking: 18" wide by 63" long; post-blocking: 19" wide by 78" long

Please excuse the rushed photos. Miss Linda doesn't like to have her picture taken, and I was fixated on finishing and gifting the Cozy. Especially since I didn't finish knitting it until late on Christmas. Gifted the morning of the 26th. Worth the wait though, I hope...and my Mom broke her right wrist a few weeks ago, so the Mighty Righty needed help.

And now I have to finish Bobblicious. I thought it would fit comfortably over her cast and help keep her warm during this damp New England winter. And Edgar for my Dad. And a Nantasket Basket for my Mom. And a Cozy for my sister. Yikes.

The pressure is on!

Yup, the big day is bearing down on me...and I should have at least one lovely Cozy done for the big day. Provided I get some knitting time. But there's so much to do, and so many people to see!!!!

I promise to post FO pics sooooon. Certainly by the 25th :-).

Happy holidays to my brave blog readers! And thank you!
