Handmade Pledge

What is a positive action you can take in a climate where so much is negative?   When you become part of a movement that supports making and giving handmade gifts you support activities that are frugal, sustainable, heartfelt, down-to-earth and meaningful.  Make a pledge to give and request handmade gifts for the holiday season.

    I love the idea of giving homemade gifts! I’ve started the Multi-Hued Afghan for my mother-in-law. She thought it was too small so I’ve added 6 rows to every color block & I’m also making panels 1 & 2 again to be panels 5 & 4. With a newborn things have slowed to a crawl (This week we also have a tummy bug running through). I’m hoping & praying I can finish it before Christmas. I’ve also started a simple poncho for my Grandmother . . . Still haven’t finished my husband’s sweater. . . The afghan & sweater are the closest to being finished. What are the rest of you working on? I LOVE the Cable Luxe Tunic, but was waiting to start until the sweater & poncho were finished. I think my sister would look great in it!!
