Oh Christmas Tree, I Shall Knit Thee!

Whenever I'm around my sisters at the holidays, I like to sing a version of O Tennenbaum in which all the words are "Oh Christmas Tree." Try it some time. It's fun.

The freshest latest in the Molting Yeti Shop is not one, not two, but three Christmas Trees to knit and adore. They knit up simply and quickly, and they'll make a great centerpiece, stocking stuffer, or huggable softie for anyone on your naughty or nice list this season. Plus there's three of them, so you can knit yourself a triumvirate of tactile tannenbaums, or a veritable tree trifecta! I hope you'll have as much fun making them as I did!

What a great project! Thanks for sharing those with us! I have some spare yellow and green worsted weight hanging around and I bet I have some scraps of red and brown somewhere too.

Your alternative Xmas-trees are great! It's so nice to come here and just smile... But I'm hoping you have only briefly come up from 10.000 miles under the sea, to catch your breath, and then back down to make more maritime creatures. Loved the albino ones!

Thanks again, everyone! Marjojo, yes, I'm metaphorically coming up to the surface for a big gulp of air - more undersea creatures are in the works.

i have seen the trees in person. they are super cute and cuddly!!! i think they'd make cute holiday decorations or stuffies to go to bed with. you could also create cute scenes with woodland animals.
