Party On, Knittahs!

Some years we have a party, 
and I blog it within a day.
Other years, the party comes and goes, 
like the one that got away! 

This year's Knitmas celebration 
was like none we'd had before, 
With gifts and goodies and laughter, 
and three cheese dips to adore!



Cookies on the tree, 
with gift bags all around,
that beckoned to each gifter 
to pass those stuffers out!


Of course there was the Snowman Poop, 
which is long gone today...
but not before its photo...
this year I remembered, yay!


My stuffer's not in the picture, 
but I did keep one back.
A jar filled up with glitter 
is a great de-stressing hack!

Breathe and watch that glitter settle down...
Food and fun, and lots of stitches, 
laughter in every position; 

I'm not the only one!
As usual, we made the time 
for our favorite-est of traditions.

Annual Sock Photo!
Face-time with Alice and feet that were missing, 
it's still the season of ick.

See Alice? On my tiny, tiny Fire??? Lol...
Luckily, to get those gifties out, 
we know a couple of tricks!

Does a mailing box come in a more perfect size?
Then time to just hang out, 
and laugh and knit and sing - 


It was a two-hippopotamus-Christmas, 
four eye-rolls did it bring!


Before it was all over, 
someone started shopping online...
Seven knitters bought 14 skeins 
in nearly record time!

Not that we "needed" new yarn...(but clearly we did!)
Overall the day was amazing, 
and we can't wait for next year; 
But now we're all on to Christmas...
Eek! It's almost here!

Whatever your winter holiday is (Hannukah starts tomorrow, I believe, and there are many celebrations of light throughout the current season), I hope you are ready to do the things that comfort your soul and bring you joy. 

And, if you're in the mood, maybe have a little party while you're at it, too! C'mon! It'll be fun!

Thanks for stopping by, and Knit in Good Health!
