We celebrated Christmas Eve by eating traditional tourtière , with baked potatoes and salad
playing games,
This game is Blokus, a fun strategy game.
Sitting by the fire -
this is on the TV - some people don't have this TV channel that shows a fireplace and plays Christmas songs!
We also watched Trailer Park Boys Christmas Special (lots of Canadian traditions this evening!).
I am off to play more games - ping-pong and Rock Band. We are planning a relaxing, family Christmas.
I just wanted to show a few things that I did this week -
This is an entrelac neck warmer that I knit.
Entrelac knitting is made of little boxes. It is much easier than it looks.
I made it from this merino wool that I dyed and spun. More details on Ravelry.
I also spun my first skein of singles yarn this week.
It was made from a bunch of little bundles of different fibres that I hand carded into rolags.
This is a little wall hanging that I am machine quilting for those who think I have given up quilting (it is just really cold in my basement where my sewing room is - we have been having -30C temperatures recently). This is made with fabric I dyed last winter. I just have the background left to quilt.
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a wonderful Christmas!♥
