Mid-Year Check-in

Summer Solstice is today. Six months until Yule.
  
Six months????

When everyone else is thinking summery thoughts, I am focusing more than ever on completing the gift list. My plans for having hand-made items under the tree are coming together. 

Slowly.

I had hoped to have more finished by now. I did manage to finish Diva's hat, and more than halfway finished with the matching scarf. The mittens - well, the cuffs are done, and not much more. I have yet to get to start the others.

My list so far --

 ~Diva - hat (done), scarf (done), mittens, bookworms, HP pencil brooms, HP pencil holder, HP secret book box,
HP bookscarf - All 4 houses, tube socks, fish soap
 
~Elvis  -$94 Neck-warmer (can’t find the pattern anymore, look for another)

~Mom  - 5th Avenue Infinity Scarf 



~Misc - Christmas dishcloths, cloth napkins, coffee can crafts, dishtowel & dishrag set, fabric drawstring bags, fabric gift bags, knit apron, pillowcases, scrubbers, spicy shortbread cookies, teacup candles

I'd love to stay and chat more, but my knitting needles are getting cold! 
(I'll update as I finish)
