Getting a head start on those gifts

So, I'm thinking ahead (to Christmas), which I never do. And I'm thinking, now that I know how to knit, I should make hand-knit gifts for all my family. This year-sweaters!!

Here's what I'm thinking:

For my beloved marmie, I think this sweater would be nice:
I love the flattering shape, and those terrific diamonds are just b-yoootiful. Yes, Marmie will love it.


For my eldest seester, this cardigan...the one worn by "Braid Lady"...

Only, seester has to agree to please always wear a pocohantas braid with my handmaid sweater. And a scrunchy.



For my fellow middle-seester, I think this number would be delightful:



She must wear her bangs like that, though. I think the cotton candy pink and baby blue will look very striking on her.


For my baby seester, the following romantic cardigan:

I can totally see my baby seester in this. Isn't it so romantic? I bet her husband will just love it!



My poor daddy hasn't got a sweater picked out for him....yet. I'll work on that. We wouldn't want him feeling unloved, now, would we???


And finally, please observe the following model:



I think she looks scared. petrified, even. Adam thinks it's because she saw her reflection.
