Knit along

i just found
this knit along on the Blue Blog, and realized
that it could be just what i need to give me a
push to actually make some holiday gifts.
Or, in my case: Christmas presents.
No doubt i'm the only female human who
has not given a thought to this area.
After all, Christmas comes at the same time every year.
And there are gifts to be found. or made.
So, thanks to Alison at the blue blog.

and i'd better get thinking about pressies.

in non-gift knitting news: my canadian colour socks (regia yarn) are coming along - i'm on the second sock and i can't wait to wear them.
Ah, yes. this is part of why no one else is getting pressies.
i'm the one dying for more socks. Ah yes, i see a trend here.


in non-active knitting news:
i have a rotten, nasty cold.
i have been sleeping for most of the past 2 days.
(and now, on a less gross topic:)

i have been wanting the moon "status" on my blog forever.
i first saw it on Miss D's blog.

Alas, my moon phase is stuck at the very top of my side bar.
Rudely laying over TOP of other things.
i've tried to fix it at least six times.
still can't see what the problem is.

i've resorted to removing the moon.
