Holiday wishes from jak and her boyz!

Ah snow! Being home in NB with the snow the sunshine and the knitting makes me happy in my heart!



And the hearts of my boyz...



I managed to get promised knitting completed along with a couple of surprises of felt mits for the girls from TO. One needs a good pair of mits for the fluffy white stuff of NB. We got 10 cms last night with promises of more to come from the Weather Network - yeah! Santa brought us new sleds we plan to put to good use over the next few days!

Only photo of holiday knitting is Socks for my FIL.

PS I received the most wonderful wool blanket from Mr. jak (at the suggestion of my FIL - my #1 Enabler). It's made from local NB sheep (who I'm going to visit on the 30th!), and was carded, cleaned and woven in one of my favorite 'farms' Mac Auslan's Woolen Mills in Bloomfield, PE. I am a lucky, lucky girl with a beautful blankie...
