Four months and a lot of accidental finger pricks later (though I did not bleed on a single project, rather proud of that) my Christmas cityscape gifts are all finished. With a month and three days left before Christmas.

A vacation’s worth of crafts. For those wondering, I do in fact still knit and car time made for good knitting time. (The middle section of the shawl got completed and the final section got started.)

And that’s six Christmas gifts done. This one came out a little wonky and is not a perfect circle because the sticky paper was misbehaving. (Remember Kate, made with love, not with perfection.)
