I must confess, I’m starting to suspect that I’m not going to get my holiday knitting finished in time to send it off and have it arrive by Christmas.

In order not to stress myself out, I’ve come up with a plan B, which invovles by smallish gifts (books, mostly) for my family and mailing those off in time then following up with the knitted gifts at a later date. That still feels kind of lame, though, so I’m cranking away a the holiday gifts.

I’ve finished the back of Dad’s aran, and am now working on the front. As you can see, at this point it looks exactly the same as the back does. It is going faster since I’ve bascially memorized the charts, but it’s still a lot of knitting.

I am happy with the way it’s turning out, though, and I’m keeping my fingers crossed that I’ll have it finished in time.
