I was meaning to ask you if you made anything with the floral bias from Summer?

Ahhh! Julie!! Is that Matzoh Crunch you're eating? That stuff is addictive. Have a great holiday... Cheers! Jennifer

Ahh, but are you really relaxing, or is there a pair of knitting needles just out of shot, all ready for a serious bout of clacketty-clacking? =)
Enjoy your break!

You actually have quiet periods during the holiday season? 0_o My schedule is ridiculously hectic! Enjoy any quiet time you can grab :)

Is that a piece of Millionaire's Shortbread I see before me on your lovely calm photo? Eat and enjoy the peace!

Quiet time? Don't remember that.
Well done to you on organising your life so that it IS part of the preparation for Christmas.

I hope that you and your family have a wonderful Christmas and any other European holidays that I might not know about. I enjoy reading your blog and marveling over your wonderful pictures! I wish that I knew what kind of camera you have! :)
Your blog has been a beautiful and quiet place that I can enter into knitterland from... your perfect stitches are the example that I strive to acheive the straightness of! (sorry, a poetic moment there!) And I dream that someday I will be able to knit my own little cotton rabbit with a pretty little instarsia cardigan. What a lovely site you have!:P
Your USA blog-reader and pattern-awaiter!
God Bless you!

I don't know why but I love this photo you took. I makes me think of serenity and peace. Maybe it's the hot steam coming from your cup or the lovely sunshine and backdrop of curtains. Have a lovely quiet time with lots of steamy cups of tea or coffee and yummy goodies to eat. By the way, your little cotton rabbits are the cutest I've ever seen...love your banner too. Oh, and thank you for the directions to make the little Christmas tree ornaments...I am excited to try my hand at knitting those.

Hi Julie,
Just to say that the Little Cottons Rabbits cards I ordered from Red Bubble arrived today. I was really pleased with the speed of the delivery (6 working days) and the quality of the cards and of course the lovely photographs.
I can't wait to give them to my family at Christmas.
Cheers
Liz

Oh, what a wonderful and peaceful picture! Enjoy the break and take a rest!

I have been in a bit of a rut with my knitting, nothing I saw seemed worth the effort of casting on. Then I saw these bears and have found my inspiration again. Thank you!
