Pop Out

I think I am done knitting holiday gifts! I do have a huge urge to knit Christmas stockings though. I don't know if these will get done for this year but I have started looking for patterns. The problem is that I am drawn to the simple designs with maybe a single snowflake or stripe pattern. My husband like the Sampler/Fair Isle designs and my step-son wants a plain red one with nothing on it. Should I knit everyone one what they want or keep them similar?

There is something about me knitting after 9pm. Last night, I was knitting my minisweater/boobholder and wanted to make a pull-over vs. a cardigan shrug. I cast-on a few more stitches at the end of a row and joined. I knit a few rows and tried it on. WOW! Nothing like having the opening end right under your boobs. With a fear that the girls would pop out with everyday wear, I frogged back to before I joined and am now making a full length cardigan. Why does this always happen around 10PM?
