At my workplace, there is currently a contest to make ornaments for the staff Christmas tree, with some undisclosed prize to be given to the winner. I don't have much of a competitive nature, but I have a lot of a crafty nature, so I spent my coffee and lunch breaks for a few days working on a tiny little green sweater for the tree. I used some leftover KnitPicks Stroll on US1 needles and cast on 48 stitches around for the body. It ended up about three inches across, which is what I was aiming for.
I put three little cables up the front and back just for some interest, and made a little turtleneck collar, which is perhaps not quite tall enough to call a turtleneck, but who's counting.
I think it turned out pretty cute, and it definitely looks great on the tree -- bring on the competition!

I bet no one will know where that ornament came from...LOL This might give someone incentive to have a Christmas tree, and she could have it decorated with tiny sweaters, mitts, scarves and hats...hmmmm
