Knit your own Nativity

Our church's latest acquisition had its first outing at this evening's carol service. It's a gift from a lady who's knitted many of them over the years, but sadly isn't well enough to make any more.
It's short of a few lambs, donkeys and oxen, but the minister has copies of the patterns so it looks as though I'll be taking up the needles in the New Year. If I start in January they might just be finished in time for the next carol service.
