Massive quantities of felted thrift-store wool sweater slippers. All lovingly sewn. They’re quite warm!

Christmas presents: quilts!

Here are a couple of quilts I made for Christmas gifts this year. Nothing fancy. They’re all machine sewn, although I’m pretty happy with the edge binding. Finally found good instructions on how to do it correctly.

Christmas presents: giant knot!

Behold! The largest knot I’ve tied to date. For the record, it’s Abok #2218. It has 50 points of intersection. The boys each wanted one for Christmas. I have one more to tie. They take an hour or so to do.
