Do you knit holiday gifts for your co-workers? Do you feel like it’s a chore you have to do or have you found a way to make it fun?
At customer Trish’s office they have a Santa hat contest every year so that one of her lucky co-workers can win a handknitted hat!
They play games like “race to wrap a present”, “pin the pom-pom on Santa’s hat”, “complete the Christmas song lyrics”, and Christmas trivia to pick the winners.

Here are a few determined competitors in the “draw a Christmas tree & ornaments with the paper on your head” contest!

The two hats here are (on the left) Penny’s Santa Hat, knit in aran weight on US 9 needles and (on the right) our very own Whimsical Holiday Hat which knits up SUPER fast on US 17 needles!
Happy knitting to all! Eat a bunch of Christmas cookies, have some eggnog, and don’t work too hard!
