Friday night I went to my friend Carrie's annual Girls Nite In holiday get together. Every year we have a blast eating good eats, drinking good drinks (this year the specialty was Choco-Mint Martinis - mmm!), singing karaoke and just being silly girls.
A few of us at the party like the exchange gifts every year and this time we used elfster.com's Secret Santa feature to randomly draw names to do a secret santa instead of getting something small for everyone. The site is really cool - you can post anonymous questions for the person you are gifting and you can leave messages for the whole group, make wishlists, etc. Very fun!
Anyway, my gift was a couple cute pairs of socks and a $20 gift card to Borders Books. I think I might like to buy myself a new knitting book, but there are so many out there, so I need some help. Make some suggestions please : )
Thanks in advance and hope you are all enjoying the holiday season!
PS - My weekend was full of other great things, including my middle sister's graduation ceremony...more to come on that : )

what a fun idea!
I'd say my favorite that I bought recently is Sensual Knits or Vintage Knits: Thirty Knitting Designs for Men and Women
That's such a great idea for a swap...usually most swaps are so disappointing! Lucky you getting to pick out a new book :)
oh what a good santa! I like the new knitspeak, oh and the newest 1 skein by designers...Hmm so many good books!
