Pom pom joy…

My back is starting to feel a bit more like it so I have managed to start knitting again in short bursts. The Christmas knitting will be late this year but as the government cancelled Christmas yesterday I don’t suppose it will make too much difference π₯
I have had a lovely afternoon watching the Royal Ballet The Nutcracker on an arts channel – Christmas starts with the Nutcracker. While watching the ballet I have been having fun making pom poms!

Not sure if I can rescue this one though, don’t think there will be much left if I start trimming it!

Hopefully my posts will be less haphazard now I am more mobile.
Woolly wishes everyone,
Jane β‘β‘β‘
You’re doing a GREAT job – keep it up (if the back permits, of course!)

Thank you Pammie. Can’t sit for long and haven’t mastered knitting standing yet π€

Nice cables on your hats. And the lop-sided appearance of that one pom-pom will not be noticeable once it is affixed to the hat and the hat on the head of the wearer.

Thank you. I pulled something in my back 3 weeks ago doing laundry (who’d have thought laundry could be so dangerous!!) but was in agony and sitting was a nightmare so no knitting π

Yikes. Just goes to show it’s better to knit than do housework! π

I used to LOVE making Pom Poms. Weβd make huge ones to play with, and thought it was so much fun. What do you use yours for? Hats and things?

What do you mean they cancelled Christmas?? Who does that? Dollars to donuts they still celebrate! Either way, no one can stop Baby Jesus!!!
I love the hats. They look so plump and cozy. I, for one, would proudly don the lopsided pompom! Happy to hear your back is improving. Merry Christmas, Jane.

We are just having Christmas at home but the government promised the country family get togethers for Christmas but sadly COVID isn’t as under control as they had hopedπ£
Thank you for the lovely comments about my pom poms. Merry Christmas to you too Regina xx

I would be upset as well. I am sorry this is the case. Maybe you’ll get a giant snow storm then you can blame the cancelled plans on the snow!!
