This year marks the first time my husband and I are celebrating Christmas in a faraway land (a land that is abundance in snow, no less, which makes Christmas feel even more like…Christmas? If that makes any sense…)
- This year also marks the first time we will be celebrating Christmas with people who aren’t family. Although not related by blood, they are still good friends and good company, so we shall have ourselves a merry little Christmas over here ☺️
I made various types of gift bags and Christmas socks for everyone. Just something big enough to put in the assortments of chocolates I’ll be giving out. Please excuse the choice of colors I used. My yarn stock is still a work-in-progress as I had to leave behind my huge collection of yarn back home. So I had to make do with whatever I have at the moment.
Have a merry Christmas everyone, stay safe and see you in 2015! xx
p/s: I had made my gift bags and socks using these free pattern that I found online (although I did modify them here and there to fit the size I had in mine as well as the type of yarn that I was using).
