I also started some early Christmas knitting. This is the start of a Christmas Stocking for the BF's nephew Thomas. I'm basically enlarging the free "Opal" pattern and doing it in DK on 4mm needles. Knitting with hedgehogs? This baby's knitting with porcupines!
This is actually red wool, not orange. I've designed this myself. I'm going to do Fairisle including Thomas's name and some Christmas Trees. Then it's going to be a garish stripe design (green and red) with a red heel and toe. I'm starting it now so I can get bored and skip to other projects, and actually get it finished.
Finally, here's some more socks for me! (It's been a while). This is "Opal - Rainforest - Blue Frog" and it was sent to me in the Springtime Secret Santa goodie haul. It's about time I started knitting with it. :-)
As for house selling... I'm about to have an argument with the estate agent so I'll get back to you when I have finished that.

That baby set is just too cute!
I can't believe you've started on your Christmas knitting - that is too organised by half!
