Holiday Knitting Done!

*waves*  Hullo.

I couldn't be more pleased to report that the knitting part of the holiday knitting is done, done, done!  Granted this was more of an accomplishment last year, but it feels good anyway.  I'll post pictures once the end-of-semester work is equally done, but for now, a list...

1.  Gus's Hagrid Feetz are felting as I type.

2.  Marie's shawl is completely finished and requires only wrapping.  Turned out pretty good.

3.  Wee somethings for the NH folk also only require wrapping.

Also done, but will probably get re-worked:  Fire and Ice gloves (they're blocking now; I don't like the way the thumb turned out on the Fire glove, though - a wee tadpole project for post-end-of-semester).

Currently on the needles:

1.  Glenesk.

2.  Age of Aquarius Sweater

3.  A wee something that I may or may not finish in time to include it in the box for Susan.

After those fiddly Fire and Ice gloves, I really want to do something simple in biggish yarn.  Not that Pakucho organic cotton counts as "biggish," but Catha's sweater may be next.  *ponders*  The Glenesk and Age of Aquarius are both slightly fiddly (although nothing is as fiddly as having three balls of yarn attached to four needles with the rest of the glove flopping about on multiple stitch holders, making up a pattern whilst Pseudo tries to a) help and b) get affection, often simultaneously).

Anyone else having trouble getting into the mood for Midwinter Festivities this year?  Well, ask me again tomorrow, when grades are finally filed and the administrative stuff is over for the year.

I'll post pictures of the finished stuff soon; in the interim, have a holly jolly time :)
