2 FO and some progress

Look what I've finished tris week end : Monkey socks from Cookie A. As hundred of happy knitters I enjoy a lot doing these. Specialy with this great yarn : Colinette Jitterbug who give these sock really cool strippes. I'm still not sure to buy more of this yarn because my LYS had made an error and sold me 2 skeins for 25$ and they real price is 25$ each skein...

Another one more in a Christmas feeling...they are ready to be wrapped up and put under the tree for lucky person of my entourage... I would have like to keep them but I'll be strong and made myself another pair after Christmas time !

Taking about socks... my falling leaves are way too large !!! even for me I think I will have to start over without a few stiches, disapointing. It was suposed to be a Christmas gift too so I think I will need to make a little bit of shopping before the end of the week.

Then, I made myself a new knitted bangle since I gave the other one to a co-worker that love the other so much :). The new one is called Stripped bangle... lol I am so creative with names !




Taking about Christmas theme pictures... do you know what !?! In one week we are going to celebrate !!! Yay ! And as I told in a previous post... I've been planning a trip since last summer with my BF. We are going to Dubaï in United Arabs Emirates. We are leaving on December 24th andf coming back on January 4th... Look at this :


"From its 321 meters, the Burj Al Arab, located on an artificial island is both the hotel the highest in the world and the only one featuring 7 stars. Became a symbol of Dubai, this impressive infrastructure in the shape of a boat houses 220 duplex suites."

This is just a taste of what I will see below: impressinnants buildings, camel races, the ski center located inside in the middle of the desert ... So you will understand if I am very excited by next week!

Have a good week !
