I am very pleased with how the little striped booties are turning out except that they will be totally too big for the intended baby!  Oh well.  I may try to downsize the pattern.  We are just about to finish The Silver Donkey.  A wonderful story,  I don't know that I would recommend it for young children, but I would for ages over nine as a read aloud, maybe over age twelve for independent reading.  But do read it aloud - big ponderings come hand in hand with this one on courage, heroism, loyalty, and faithfulness. 

Merry Christmas to Ginny at Small Things and all the participants of the yarn along!

Cute booties :) Isn't that funny how yours are turning out to big and for some reason lately everything I've knitted turns out to small! LOL. You should definitely give the double pointed needles a try in the new year. They're a little tricky to get started but now I'm actually loving them. I've just made it to the heel on the first sock so there will definitely be some progress to show on the next yarn along :) Hope you had a lovely Christmas :)
