This was the beginning of my Christmas Crunch, and what a long, hard process it turned out to be. This pattern, however, was a delight to knit, and my mom loved them so much, she actually framed one of them.

This was for Zach's mom. I was surprised at the quality of the Stitch Nation wool, which was purchased at JoAnn Fabrics. The color was great, but dyed my bamboo needles blue.
