The clay sculpture of the "Four Seasons Fantasy City" series "Winter Tibetan. Shambhala" was finally completed by Mr.Liang.This art work was created with Princess Wencheng's entry into Tibet as the story background. Shambhala, hidden in the snow-capped mountains, was the legendary sacred place in the Tibetan region. People called it as the "Happiness paradise." The eight-petal lotus is transformed into eight stupas and interspersed in the palace, and the waterfall flowing through the city breaks the ice layer at the bottom of the mountain. Acorrding to the history records. Princess Wencheng entered Tibet, and fortunately saw Shambhala on the way. The princess keep praising about this landscape. Songtsan Gambo, was the king, keeped it mind and builted the Potala Palace later for her ~ The works are tentatively scheduled to be held during the Shanghai WF Exhibition in April of this year. Thank you for your support, Happy New Year 2020.

This is part 5 in a 12 part series highlighting designs from our 12 Days of Winter, Series 3 Edition. It's Day 5 in the 12 Days of Winter Kit Collection, and it's a personal favorite. Say hello to the Gingerbread Stocking! I have to start this off with a bit of a sad story, but I'll end it with something sweet, I promise. When I was about three years old, I was given a very large green stocking with my name embroidered in red on the cuff. My favorite thing about it was that it had a big ol' Santa Claus face attached to it and he had a huge beard. It was kitschy, and I loved it for more than 20 years. So here is the sad part...before I moved out of my home state I got rid of nearly everything I owned because I knew I'd be traveling for a while. I put together a box with my holiday decor to store at my in-laws' house. Then, heartbreakingly, I accidentally dropped that box off at Goodwill. The next winter, when I realized all of the decorations were missing - including my stocking - my heart sank. I lost this silly stocking that meant so much to me! Twisted stitches create the cables along the cuff. An I-cord edging creates the hanger. As sad as I was about that stocking, life is short, it was a material item, and you have to move on (even though it still stings!). So, for the 12 Days of Winter Kit Collection this year, I decided it was time to design a stocking. After all, handknits are so special. That's how the Gingerbread Stocking was born. I chose Deluxe Bulky Superwash because it's easy to care for, thick enough to create a sturdy stocking, and it makes for quick knitting. Not to mention the fact that I love the expansive palette. I chose classic, deep colors for this design, and that got me thinking about one of my favorite winter treats: gingerbread. The Fair Isle motif used throughout these socks reminds me of the decorations that adorn gingerbread houses. It's a super-fun knit, and I worked this thing up in a matter of days. Worked in the round from the cuff down, this stocking features an after-thought heel. (Side note, we have a great tutorial on after-thought heels from the first 12 Days of Winter series that you can find here.)In honor of these stockings and my love for gingerbread (or anything that contains molasses or ginger), I thought I'd share a recipe for gingerbread loaf - I told you I'd end this post with something sweet! Ingredients 4 Tbs. unsalted butter1⁄2 cup sugar1⁄2 cup molasses (yummy!)1⁄2 cup finely chopped crystallized ginger (also yummy!)2 eggs1 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour1 tsp. baking soda2 tsp. ground ginger1⁄2 tsp. ground cinnamon1⁄2 tsp. ground allspice1⁄4 tsp. ground plain 1⁄2 cup almond milk (or milk of your choice) DirectionsStart by preheating your oven to 350 degrees and greasing a 9x4 loaf pan. In a bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until fluffy. Then, add the molasses and crystallized ginger. I highly recommend separating the ginger a bit so it doesn't just clump together. Beat in the eggs, one at a time. In a separate bowl, sift the flour, spices, and baking soda together. In several batches, alternate stirring the flour mixture and the milk into the butter mixture. Take care not to overmix. Pour the batter into the loaf pan, place in the oven, and bake for about 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool or serve warm (my personal preference), and try not to eat it all at once! Yummy! I hope you'll enjoy knitting the Gingerbread Stocking as much as you'll enjoy indulging in this gingerbread loaf. What's better than pairing knitting with baked goods? Remember, you can find the Gingerbread Stocking kit and the rest of the 12 Days of Winter kits at your local yarn store. Happy crafting!
