i have decided

ok

so i volunteered to make my

Great Niece & Great Nephew a stocking this year

didn't make them baby blankets

well ..

their uncle is gonna be a daddy soon

so i am up to 3

then their mom's cousin was JUST a daddy

so i am up to 4

a friend has an daughter
about to be TWO years old
up to 5
she has an older brother
which brings me to SIX

i decided to make Snow Children

knit the child in white

use a Glittery Filament with the yarn

knit Hat, Scarf & Mittens out of sock yarn

attach to the stocking

embellish the children using

the Clover Felting Needle supplies

AND the punch needle supplies i bought

gonna knit the name out of varigated yarn

that's the plan NOW

will see how it looks when i start knitting

MAY use strands for each letter so that the letters

stripe as opposed to the NAME striping long ways

then i see that there is the kit to

needle felt & embellish

using similar idea

anyways ..

gonna graph a snow child

knit it in the stocking

also knitting the name into the TOP

the year 2006 in the heel

& proceed from there

bought yarn

the longest name is 7 letters so that's

100 stitches to cast on

will felt it when i am done knitting

bought cascade 220

naturespun worsted

galway

Lion brand cool wool

Paton's classic wool

it will ALSO be an experiment to see

how different yarns FELT

gonna make them ALL

using the same pattern

then will felt them altogether

IF i don't get antsie
