Happy Christmas to all

I'm working on rounding up all the Top Secret Christmas Knitting that I can now finally show you, but the thought of putting all those pictures into one post is currently making my head spin.  So, here's a sneak peek.

In other exciting yarn-related news, my brother got me a book on colorwork and two skeins of soft soft soft fingering weight alpaca which I am using together for a pair of fingerless mitts.  And my aunt Jane, who has a small farm of happy sheep and spins their wool, gave me a giant bag of sheep-grown hand-spun fiber which I have already turned in to a hat (but still have plenty more of - yay!). 

I'm going to carry on with vacation now, but I promise I'll get that Christmas post up here sometime.
