I can finally unwrap my Christmas knitting for you all!

The Breadcloths Sarah and I knit for extended family members (we made 10 — this is our own pattern and it available as a free pattern from Pelagia Fiber Arts):

The Llama for Max — based on the toy llama in the Llama Llama books by Anna Dewdney:

I am super proud of how well it turned out! 

Accompanied by the Duck for Gwen (Mette Buchreitz's pattern available on etsy.com):

Gwen loves her "guck"!  I finished it Christmas morning and was wrapping it as they drove up to the house! I had finished knitting all the pieces at Sonja's house Christmas Eve.  Then sewed them together while waiting in the car for AAA when we had a flat tire after Midnight Mass (yeah — kind of a late night! there was a mixup with the repair truck and then it got stuck in traffic because of an accident and about 2:20 am we decided to put on the spare ourselves and got home about 3:00, in bed about 4:30….but it was one of those hey-ya-just-gotta-laugh-about-it situations — George, Sasha, Geoff and I eating Chirsmas cookies and listening to the Neil Diamond Christmas CD in the car in the church parking lot in the middle of the night on Christmas…!).

I have to get some more pictures taken to finish the show — so look for those later this week!
