Knitting
My mom and sister are really good at all the crafty stuff. I, unfortunately, did not get that particular gene. Michael and Annie have wanted to learn how to knit for a long time, and I have not been able to teach them (Jay, apparently, does not have the crafty gene, either). Anyway, Aunt Laura turned out to be a very good teacher
They actually started and completed their projects during Laura's short visit. They each made a pouch. Michael's fits his Magic Cards just right and Annie's turned out to be a pouch for her doll to carry. If you look really closely, you can see the finished pouches in the next picture.
Laura made all of us gifts. She made ponchos for Annie, herself, and me. She made caps for the boys. They are all quite nice!
Michael really likes his cap. He's thinking here about how warm his ears will be when he goes skating and to Jay's hockey games.
Unfortunately, Jay's cap was not quite finished. I'm sure he'll cheer up when he receives his finished cap in the mail in a couple of weeks!
