Mittens for Eloise (Stormy Sea BFL)Remember in October I posted about my Dad's scarf, and how maybe this year would be different, maybe this year I would not be knitting like a maniac at the last minute? Well....I would have been done, really I would have, but I decided that I needed to knit from handspun this year (yes, I know there is a knitting store worth of commercial yarn stashed around my house).
A hat for my friend's son (Blue Ring Octopus Mernio)
A scarf for my Mom, in 'Dingo' polwarth. 
Maine Morning Mitts for my sister (Shetland /bamboo in Banksia from The Thylacine). She saw a picture of me wearing mine and asked...er, demanded a pair. Yes, she is spoiled.
A Ribbed Beanie for Jacob (Shetland roving from Baby Long Legs)
Now, I need to get back to knitting...2 neck warmers to finish and maybe a hat. Next year will be different......really!
Really beautiful handspun gifts! Your spinning in divine. Good luck getting the other gifts done. Like you, I'm trying to finish something today, too--an Owls sweater for my third daughter.

Good luck finishing your Owls Sweater. I am heading out to the store, and then will be making pork pie for tonight.
