I DIDN'T FORGET HOW!!!

Yesterday afternoon--
I turned on a Christmas movie and got the red and white yarns-out
and tried a new pattern for mini knitted stockings--

(These have not been stitched closed yet-)
but I made one in the afternoon and the second one in the evening--
I have not knitted in long time-
Cause when I knitted it was causing me so much discomfort on that 'right' side
but as that has finally eased up some--I decided to try to knit again--
love making these--so figure there will be some more being knitted up--
a start on Chmas 2019!!!!

and --
for Slow stitching Sunday--
actually I stitch a bit on this every morning for the most part--
here is where I am on the ABC sampler--

got a good bit done this past week--
I would like to finish this piece by the end of the year--
so Di keep stitching-----

And I was told that I needed to 'open' one of the gifts that came in the mail--
now--
so I did--

Is this not adorable ??????
and it has helped me feel more Christmasy--
it comes for a reader friend--Carol ( she does not have a blog site--but reads some every day)
this is the 3rd year in a row she has sent me a counted cross stitch piece--
so now I have a Collection of Carol pieces--
thank you so much Carol--best wishes for a great 2019--

Ok--lets see do I have another holiday cartoon for you--

HAVE A GREAT SUNDAY--
ENJOY, DI
