Christmas Spirit! And Knitting!

So Chritmas is coming up! So my mom bought me these adorable cupcake ornaments. They are so cute. My mom also bought me a little white tree to put in my room. So my Christmas tree is going to be cupcake themed! Now I have to think of what i'm going to knit my mom and sisters for christmas. Well, one of my sisters always likes to steal my bella mittens so I might make her those. One of my other sisters likes to steal my owl hat, so i think i'll knit her that. But for my mom and last sister? What should I knit them? They are also knitters so i have to find the perfect knitting thing for them, but what? I'll think about that later.

Verity

I've recently made the Verity Beret by Ysolda. I love this hat so much! I used Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Kettle Dyed. I used about 1 1/2 balls of the 4 I have. I had trouble with the band. So I had to go to the Ysolda group and at the bottom of the topics was a topic search. So I search Verity Band and I went to the topic that said "another Verity Band problem" or something close to that. But it was very helpful. I also figured out alot of the people who made this hat had trouble with the band, and i'm not the only one. I was glade to find this out.
