Santa Sales Gliding Right Along

Sales for Fifty Shades of Santa are gliding right along. Of course, we'd like more, really be nice if we could land in the top 100 of Amazon sales. Not likely, given the late start we got, but the word is spreading. (What would be our chances of postponing Christmas until sometime in late January?)

We like to call Fifty Shades of Santa "romance for the rest of us," the rest of us being readers whose idea of love doesn't include implements of pain, according to our publisher.

See for yourself at http://www.amazon.com/Fifty-Shades-of-Santa-ebook/dp/B00AMR3RII/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1355368118&sr=1-2&keywords=Fifty+Shades+of+Santa

CHAMELEON SCARF DIRECTIONS

The predominate shade of the two-color Chameleon Scarf depends on which side you are looking at, and the color of the fringe depends on which end is showing. The Chameleon uses two contrasting colors and is a knit stitch throughout.

Use two skeins of about 175 yards each, an appropriate weight for size 8-9 circular needles.

Color A: Cast on (not long-tail) 225-250 stitches. Knit one row.

Color B: Switch to other end of circular needle. Leave 12 inches for fringe. Knit two rows.

Color A: Switch to other end of circular needle. Leave 24 inches for fringe, Knit two rows.

Color B: Switch to other end of circular needle. Leave 24 inches for fringe. Knit two rows.

Repeat, alternating colors until desirable width is reached. With Color A, knit one row. Bind off. Leave 12 inches for fringe.

Cut loops, tie fringe pieces snuggly together. If work has become loose, tighten up fringe lengths before tying together. Trim length as desired.
