Returning colors, (aka the 'Tis the Season posse):

Autumn Christmas Balls Deck the Halls Dreidel
Fall "On Tap" Gingerbread Dude Gingerbread Dudette Grinchy
Harvest Moon Hobgoblin Hollyday Jingle Bell Rock

And here are our new friends:

Yule Tide Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah
 

Which ones catch your eye?

If we're lucky, Tina will take us through her inspiration and how some of these came to be... but for now she's dyeing up a storm in the barn because of the many shows in the upcoming weeks.

Ohmigosh you are cracking me up!  I had to google Peepee Weepkins to see where you got it, and have ordered the book.  Now I will order the yarn even though my daughter has banned me from knitting anything pink for the new baby.

LOVE new colors!!! Franken Hen makes my heart flutter. Ghoulash & Black Magic, too. Closely followed by Debra Anne.

Rawkin’ Sockin’ Knitters might be my favorite. Oooh, and Sockgate DHD.

Glad to see some ochres showing up, especially Ochroid. And always happy to see my old favorites Pond Scum, Monsoon, Muddy Autumn Rainbow and Tide Pooling.

I could just order about 50 right off the bat and frame them!!! Tina, I do hope you will take the time one day and give us your inspirations.
