I’m thinking of taking the handmade challenge for Christmas 2011.  I’m also thinking I probably should have started already since I’m a slow knitter … ah well … what’s done is done; July 1st is already gone.  😉

I’m testing the pattern below as gifts for my cousin and her brother’s wife.  I’m still not sure about it, but as with almost anything else, I’m gamed to try at least once.  😀

My plan is to do the knit in a less weighty yarn than bulky/chunky.  I’m going to start testing tomorrow (I mean today since I’m up at 12:37 am 😀)  and will post results in a couple of days; the pattern seems easy enough to be able to do that although I’m a slow knitter.

Anybody else going the handmade route this Christmas?  Share your projects!!!!!  I’d love some additional inspiration.
