Let it snow, let it Reindeer

I have finished my cutest creation ever, just in time for our family Christmas gift exchange.  It is a reindeer, and it is utterly adorable.  I almost don’t want to give him up.  He is my very own creation. No pattern, no model, just my imagination and knitting skill.  I’m kind of attached to the little guy.  Mom says she may have to fight for him from whomever gets him. Our Christmas gift exchanges work like this: first person draws from the pile and opens a gift. Second person may either choose a new gift or steal someone else’s.  If your gift is stolen you may steal or draw from the pile. And it goes on until everyone has a gift.  There may or may not be bartering afterward.  It’s always fun and, this year, I finally have something to bring that I truly like.

Later that evening….

And now that it is all over and the family has gone home… the reindeer has managed to stay with us.  Dad took it from the pile.  I ended up with two mugs and a basket.  The mugs will be perfect for my tea, and the basket can hold small balls of yarn.  All in all, it was time well spent with family and food.
