It has suddenly occured to me that the Feast of Tabernacles is coming up! This is what Jim and his family have celebrated his whole life (and is part of his quazi Jewish upbringing.)

This will be the third year now that we will celebrate in our own special way, Fiesta Blevinza. (cheesy, I know.) It keeps getting bigger and bigger, this year I’m even thinking of making tee shirts… hmm… maybe next year. It’s the greatest bash. We have SO much wonderful mexican food, mariachi music, great decorations and awsome party favors, if I do say so myself.

With this feast coming up, it means that I need to lurch in to planning mode. I want this Fiesta Blevinza to be 10 times better than last year. And seeing that I had Honor one week after last Fiesta Blevinza, I’m sure it will be 10 times better.

It also means that I’ve got to lurch into knitting mode. This is the feast that we exchange gifts with Jim’s family. I plan to make everyone who will wear one, a scarf.
Here’s my progress on Abbey’s scarf. It’s the cutest pattern ever, a worm.

I also made this scarf out of the left over yarn from Brooke’s poncho. I’m not sure who it will be for, but the more I see it, the more I think I need to keep it for myself.

Today, I ordered some plain wool yarn (oh, the joys of eBay!) that I will hand dye to make more scarves. Soon I will be crowned the scarf making queen!!!

Here’s my progress on Aunt Ann’s scarf, which will be for Christmas.

It’s made out of merino wool and some kind of sparkly yarn which is a pain to knit with because it keeps getting tangled, but that’s for another day.
