Joy riding...

Advent Day 23...almost in the Nick of time. Santa's sleigh...


Sorry for the tardiness of this post but the lad was out for most of the day and then we were all out with friends until almost midnight :0 So even though this was made in time and delivered before the day was done, I didn't get the post done till now ; (
But that didn't stop an inquisitive gnome from checking out the sleigh right away. Shhhh...don't tell Santa...


Happy Christmas Eve all! See you later today!...

Wolfgang..

Advent Day 21! Wolfgang...





Sorry this post is a little later than usual today. It was a day full of shopping, holiday errands and fun.
Wolfgang is with us because of a special request from the lad. Aren't they cute together?

Pals...

Advent Day 20!








Oh my dears, you have no idea the grumbling that a lonely gnome is capable of. All I've heard for the past couple of days is how everyone else has a friend at the party and how horribly unfair it is. And then it occurred to me that he's right. Cue operation Pal...


Gnomio is much happier now.
As you can see everyone is all smiles now!


Hoping today finds you surrounded by smiles : )

A helping hoof...

Advent Day 19!...

Truth be told, I've been fretting about how Rudolph was going to manage pulling the sleigh all on his own when the big night rolls around.  So you can imagine my relief when Prancer decided to fly in this morning...

They've been conferring like this all morning.  Needless to say, I am feeling loads better.

Happy Monday friends!

ps—This little guy is right out of Anna's book, Teeny Tiny Mochimochi.  If you haven't checked it out, you should!  It's the best, and has been the inspiration for all of the little advent pals I've made so far.

Jack Frost...

Advent Day 18! Jack Frost brought us a little dusting of frost this morning...














Have a great day and stay warm!

Otter•ish

Advent Day 17!  Just a quick little post on these otters buds today...

Sadly, they are looking a little blobby but they don't seem too bothered by it (except they are kind of making funny faces). Still, here they are swimming around, holding hands and being ottery. Having fun, being cuddly, and that joie de vivre~how I do love otters!
Must run for now. I'm off for a full day at the shop. I'm predicting a busy day of last minute gift-knit shoppers and high sales of chunky yarn. Should be festive and fun!
Happy Saturday to you!

Candy cane...

Advent Day15 brought to you by Epic the narwhal...





This guy is dedicated to my middle man, a boy with a love for all things narwhalian. And why "Epic"?...Well aside from my boy's appreciation for epicness in all forms, I'm fairly certain that that horn/tusk thingy is made of the same stuff as candy canes...mmmm...totally epic...








Oh dear~I think our little puddle of ocean is looking rather crowded. I may have to do a bit more landscape knitting soon. For now though, it's back to Santa's workshop for me. Lots of making still to go ; )
Hope your Thursday is full of goodness!
Until tomorrow...

Advent Day 11! A friend for Crumpet...









Crumpet seems much jollier now that Noel is here. Everything is just nicer with a friend.
A lovely Sunday to you, my friends...
