-- December 6 – Make. What was the last thing you made? What materials did you use? Is there something you want to make, but you need to clear some time for it? (Author: Gretchen Rubin) --
The last thing I made was this - a little spun bamboo mossy green blanket knitted on large needles so that a special someone, my nephew Evan Brian, could poke his fingers and toes through it, interacting with something warm and fuzzy surrounding him with love.
I made him a white one when he was born with the hopes that he would feel love and comfort from me so many miles away (he's in San Jose, CA and I'm in Avon, CO). My sister made sure it was with him at all times. He doesn't go anywhere without it - it's been getting a lot of play - and now at 10 months old he initiates peek-a-boo with it. I thought it was time for a new one, a fall colored one for all of his holiday visiting.
I make my holiday card every year and that's the next thing I need to clear time for, immediately.
Happy Holidays ya'll!!
