Find out more about how to celebrate the Chinese New Year here. Also, be sure to check out Appreciate a Dragon Day on January 16th!! Check out some dragon books from your favorite library and read all about them. Then you can do dragon-themed craft (see ideas below). In honor of our namesake, here is a compilation of all things dragon. Quotes: Draco Dormiens Nunquam Titillandus 'Never tickle a sleeping dragon'. ~ Hogwarts' school motto, of the Harry Potter series Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup. ~ Dilbert by Scott Adams If you don't believe in dragons, It is curiously true That the dragons you disparage Choose to not believe in you. ~ Jack Prelutsky No doubt but there is none other beeste comparable to the mightie dragon in awesome power and majestie, and few so worthie of the diligent studies of wise men. ~ Gildas Magus, Ars Draconis, 1465 If you ignore the dragon, it will eat you. If you try to confront the dragon it will overpower you. If you ride the dragon, you will take advantage of its might and power. ~ A Chinese Proverb Movies How to Train your Dragon - Toothless Pete's Dragon - Elliot Mulan - Mushu Dragonheart - Draco Harry Potter series The Neverending Story - Falcor Shrek - Dragon Sleeping Beauty - Maleficent Voyage of the Dawn Treader - Eustace Books Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher by Bruce Coville The Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind A Song of Fire & Ice by George R.R.

A yarn swift is a fantastic creation that holds your skein of yarn, allowing it to easily spin and unwind as the yarn ball winder creates a center-pull ball of yarn. This prevents significant others from holding the yarn between their hands while the knitter winds their own ball of yarn. Henry isn't often excited about my knitting projects, but he was impressed by these knitting accessories!

Oh my goodness, that was a busy holiday season!! Hosting Thanksgiving, my birthday, hosting a Christmas party for my knitting group, teaching a knitting class, making holiday crafts & foods, knitting up a flurry of Christmas gifts, and flying off to Florida....Whew!!! I'm tired again just thinking about it all! I am terribly behind on posting a few of our holiday projects but here is a photo collage to enjoy in the meantime! Happy Holidays!!
