Abe created the place settings for our Christmas Eve dinner. Negative-space Christmas trees for the forks to go into, and the resulting cut-outs placed on the plate. Efficient and elegant use of resources.
I like their matching sideways expressions. They're making monkey noises, if you must know.
In fact they're very strange playmates (or shall I make use of the excellent phrase "strange bedfellows"?) at times, these two. But funny, always funny.
I made these sock animals for the kids this year. One of my friends taught me how, and it was great fun. I really liked figuring out how to make the different animals (original pattern was for a bunny) look like they were supposed to. And the furry socks hide all my messy stitchery. Stitch-witchery.
Christmas Eve "Elf Olympics." Great concentration being exercised here.
