I celebrated by neglecting my Xmas knitting and starting a new sock:
This is Azure from the latest Knitty. In an amazingly fortunate twist of fate I had the exact yarn that the pattern calls for -- one skein of Colinette Jitterbug in Raspberry.
The Jitterbug had been waiting patiently at the bottom of my stash for quite some time, as the yardage is just a little on the short side. Toe-up socks will allow me to make the most of this entire skein, which is just as well because I really like the colourway.
Now to get through some more of that Xmas knitting so I can have a guilt-free sit-down with my Raspberry Azure socks.

Damn Jitterbug's delicious colours! I'm glad you finally learned the magic cast on. It makes life so much better :)
Nice socks! The bird really caught my eye, though... we were out and about today, and one store we visited was full of lovely birds!
Beautiful! And I think you've just started a trend of sock pictures with Holiday ornaments! (you always have gorgeous photography)
