Sewing, snoods and other magic

This week: my internship turned festive (see above), there were handmade treats in the post from Gina (see below) . . .

Look - aposable thumbs!  Perhaps they will save me from this yellow wall . . .

and I finally finished the snood 2.0!  Huzzah!

For the pattern check out this blog post.  I used size 10 needles, cast on an extra 10 stitches at the beginning and worked six more rows at the end. It's super cosy and Nan friendly.  One Christmas present down, heaps more to go. 

What's been magical in your week?
