For Christmas my mum bought me a 'knit your own nativity' pattern book and here is stage 1, 2 and 3 (I think there's going to be 20+ stages, there are a lot of characters in the nativity)
First, there was Mary
In a lovely shade of lilac and blue, with a cream headdress
Then came Joseph
In a very manly shade of green with matching headdress, with a red waist coat and a nice beard.
Then came the baby Jesus
In a very cute nappy. Yes the pattern asked me to knit a nappy.
It took two attempts to knit Mary, mostly because the first attempt was re-teaching myself how to knit after not really knitting for about 19 years.
I'm not quite sure that's how they're feet are supposed to look, or if I've just made the clothes too small.
I'm hoping I'll get all the characters done before Christmas...
