Next Tuesday is November and although I rarely knit gifts to give friends and family for Christmas (way too much pressure), I do enjoy the thought of hand-knitted gifts or at the very least a hand-knitted ornament or Santa hat. Do a pattern search on Ravelry for the word ornament and you get over 3500 patterns. That's a lot of Christmas tree ornaments!

But this Santa hat (pictured left) knits up quick and is great for holiday parties. Come by and see our sample. We used Peruvia Quick and pattern is free with yarn purchase.

So even if you don't knit gifts for friends and family, it's ok. There is no pressure holiday knitting to be had. Knit a Santa hat or an ornament or two. Knit up some holiday cheers. You will be better for it.
