  Here’s our favorite of the lights from the holiday lights exhibit downtown.

  
  

  Can you tell we are still in a holiday mood? I have a three-day weekend, and am savoring it to the fullest. I hope you are, too.

  In addition to a little housework and a lot of celebration, I have done some knitting.

  
  

  

  
  

  Here are some slippers, in their initial Sasquatch size. #2 daughter is modeling them here:

  
  

  

  
  

   

  
  

   

  
  

  These are the Ballet Slippers from Felted Knits, done in Paton’s Classic Wool.

  
  

  And here they are, felted, in their proper elfin size:

  
  

  

  
  

   

  
  

   

  
  

   

  
  

   

  
  

  #2 daughter modelled the finished pair:

  
  

  Obviously, I could not take them away from her. I made a pair for #2 son as well, while watching the “Monk” marathon, and will make myself a pair today, if all goes according to plan. It’s amazing how much knitting a person can accomplish if she doesn’t have to go to work.

  
  

  And that is Fiona, the glasses-wearing dog, in the background. She did not need her glasses today.
