Panic mode has officially set in.
I just realized that November is just days away. Meaning, Christmas is just weeks away.
YIKES!
So I just did some mental calculations and am wondering if I’ll meet my holiday knitting deadlines.
Here’s what I want to try and knit by December 17th, (when we’re having the big family Christmas):
- 9 mini-stocking ornaments – for my dozen nieces and nephews (3 already knit)
- 5 hats – one for niece’s November birthday (yikes!); one each for mom & dad; one for family member whose name I’ve drawn (maybe); one for our knitting group‘s Barnes & Noble give-away (1/3 finished)
- 2 Mason-Dixon ballband washcloths – for family member whose name I’ve drawn
- 2 linen dish towels – for family member whose name I’ve drawn
I’d also somehow like to squeeze in a hat for Rabbitch’s contest (due December 1st – yikes!) and a scarf for the Red Scarf Project (thankfully, not due until early next year).
I can do this, right? Right?
There’s a good chance I won’t meet my ambitious goals, but at least I’ll try.
I need to get cracking and stop fiddling around with knits for myself. They’ll have to wait until after the holidays, I guess.
Where did the time go?
YIKES!
