With only a week until Christmas, I’ve started to add decorations throughout the house.  

Here’s a glimpse of just a few


There’s a Holiday Hanging towel in the kitchen.  You can find the pattern in my Ravelry shop.  
 
This towel topper is simple to knit and takes only an hour or so from start to finish.

The dishtowel is folded in half with 28 stitches cast on from a series of running stitches.

 

I use white Sugar and Cream to knit the topper and a clear button for the closure.

I’ve made several to give as hostess gifts.

 

And here’s one of my favorite ornaments.  This Lilliput Lane Cottage is called “Glad Tidings”.  It is one of my cherished mementos from my Christmas in the Cotswolds of England in 2005.

 

Santa is another of my cherished Christmas decorations. He is originally from the early 1950’s and has been part of Christmas in my home for as long as I can remember.
