Ta-da!

The presents are done! I made 5 scarves in time for Christmas.  For someone who's never completed a crochet project before, I think that's pretty admirable.  I will admit, I'm pretty damn proud of myself. Each one is different, and I learned 2 new stitches - crocodile and basket weave - and 2 new tricks - a spiral and a chevron (or zigzag).  I'm excited to give them, and hope they are liked.  Here's hoping!

Progress IS being made!

Well, my to-do list is not going to get finished entirely, but I am going to have at least one present for everyone I'm spending Christmas day with. Yay!

I have finished 2 scarves and am making good headway on a 3rd; I bought Perry's Christmas present with Amazon GCs I got with Swagbucks points (I LOVE those guys!).  After that, I just have one more person to make a present for.  Then we need to have something for his grandmother, and we're golden!
