a (late) chrocheted nativity scene

so, i was going to post about this before christmas (which would have made a lot more sense than now), but life / holidays / christmas itself got in the way. so here is my (late) final post for 2009.

i got this fabulous macrame nativity scene book for my birthday. it is so, so much fun. unfortunately though, i have no idea how to macrame - so i borrowed a friend's crochet hook (i didn't have any small enough) and decided to crochet the nativity scene instead. however, i since i started this the week before christmas, it's going to be a bit of an ongoing project...

still, i am pretty pleased with how mary, baby jesus and the manger all turned out!
