From the Knit Picks Website:
What? You say that Christmas is on the 25th of December this year? How did it sneak up so fast? As you can see, our Holiday Elf isn’t ready for Christmas yet. He’s been basking in the sun while wearing his stylish floral print Hawaiian shirt. Whether you aren’t ready to see the seasons change, or you spend the holidays in a warm climate, this tiny raglan shirt is a fun knit. A little embroidery can create palm trees and flowers…or snowflakes.
