Christmas swaps that I sent out







The top is what I sent in the Christmas around the world swap.








The yarn is from my sheep spun by me. The swap is the Knitalk christmas yarn swap.








The last is sent to a local Kris kringle for MUMs.




The Death by Socks socks are coming along. The gusset is taking forever, or so it seems. I am using Bendigo Woollen Mills 5ply classic in celery and a darker green. The stash is getting smaller!!

So much done and to do.

The sound of silence......................... I wish. New strange fact about me, I have weak ankles. Here is the relevance.

I was walking with Milly in my arms and my ankle rolled. I went down and didn't get her out of the way enough. End result baby with cast on.






That was before Christmas, just. So here she is Xmas day Firstly with her pressies, and later pulling herself around with her cast.

It was taken off on the 3rd, 2weeks and 5 days from it happening.

On the 1st, I did it again to my left ankle. But worse, not carrying bub (thank goodness) but I stepped down off the feed cart and over i went. 90kilos on a turned left ankle. I swear that was the most painful thing yet! Not broken, I allmost wish it was. sigh..........................

Milly is really crawling quite fast now and pulling up on things.

Made up Xmas swaps and will post them on monday. Late. Bad bad swapper. That is why the ankle happened, KARMA.
