success

whenever you start down the gift giving path, you run risk of injury. it can be bruised feelings, sore hands, head explosions..... the list is endless. this year i was truly limiting myself so that i could avoid any chance of incurring such wrath.
didn't work.i had inquired about crafting a neckwarmer for cc's honey. he is the toughest dude to gift, but i struck platinum last year with his ear-flap hat and wanted to repeat my success. 'no' was cc's reply, 'he just doesn't want one'. so we went with plan b- itunes and wine.
last week, cc tells me that several comments were made about the neckwarmers that she was knitting and that 'dan wants one'. of course i can't just knit one, i have to make the yarn first. duh! spun that fiber, cast on the dark-side cowl and done. turn around = 4 days.best part? he really seems to like it! worst part? i now have request for more.
