X-mas knitting

This Christmas, I decided to do almost every gift home-made. It sounded like a great plan! Cost effective, plus everyone would know that I put thought and attention into each and every stitched gift. I started in July. But now December 9th is upon us, and I still have to finish a scarf, make several golf-club-head-covers, finish a hat, and do something for my grandpa. Yeah. I have about 15 days left till the big 2-5 and I'm starting to feel the crunch. I've gotten most everything done and ready, though. I just have to send off the nieces' gifts.
And though I be harried, weary, poor, and tired-beyond-belief, this is actually my favourite holiday and - in my humble opinion - the best time of the year.
