Yesterday my man and I went on the hunt for gingerbread man cookie cutters. Needless to say two malls later and some nervous twitching (malls and I do not go together) we found some and finished the trial batch. We kinda fought over who iced

Hi Simone!
I was roaming through Ravelry and found there were alot of kiwis listed. I love NZ so much…I have been there 2 times in the last 10 years. I am coming back with one of my co-workers (her first time) in March and will be in Christchurch for quite a few days. Oh my I will be driving on the other side of the road, so if you see a crazy American driving, steer clear ..it will be safer that way….anyway, I was wondering if you can give me some good advice in finding some cool yarn there. I will be going to Queenstown (driving) and plan on going to Alexandra to visit a yarn shop. I reckon I can just stick my knitting needles in the top of a sheep and go to town …If there is anything you would like from the USA just let me know…I will be glad to bring it to you..we sure have some cool knitting needles here that I didn’t see there in my travels. Although I didn’t get to look for yarn stores, I did some some in Balentines (sp) I believe…I live in Anchorage, Alaska where we definitely need good woolen garments in the winter…
Anyway, looking forward to hearing from you!

Anyway, Happy Holidays…
Hey Simone. The cookshop on columbo up past the town hall has a great selection of cookie cutters! (trains, animals tress etc) Yours look yum yum!

How adorable!! My mom only ever just does the face and maybe a button or two. Gingerbread men are next on my list to make for the mountain of Christmas treats we’ve already eaten this month!
