There is still time to enter the contest so make sure you’ve left a comment on the previous post if you haven’t yet. Also, Melanie Falick is having a contest too so head over there and win there too!
I am seriously in disbelief that it is December. The time goes way too fast sometimes! Here are the calerndars from this month from Cynthia and me. For anyone who takes one can you leave a comment? I’m really curious as to how many people really download them each month. I actually almost told Cynthia I thought maybe it was time to stop but I’ll let you guys help make that decision. Do you love them? Do you use them every month? Do you not care either way? We’ve been doing them for almost 1.5 years now and I just want to see if a lot of people are even really using them!
Without further ado…..here are the calendars for December! Just click on the image and it will bring you to the larger image to download to your desktop. Hope you like them!

I love your calendars! I put the yarn one on my desktop at work, and a non-yarn one on the computer at home. I love the photography, and one of these days I’ll be able to afford one of your beautiful skeins of yarn in my hands and not just on my computer!
I have been using them since you started and love them. And I too often switch part way through the month. Thanks for sharing them.
I just started using them last month. I never realized how convenient it is to have one right here… Also, last month I just had to have one of your photos of our president-elect! This time I’ve downloaded the aspen leaf. I love your photos and appreciate you sharing them. Thanks!
I have only known about your calendars for a few months. Some times I have printed them, and sometimes I have not. But I’ve always enjoyed the photography and composition. My decisions about usage have a lot more to do with my own organizational state than with the calendars themselves. =) This month the leaf version will be hanging in my kitchen, making me appreciate the season every time it catches my eye. Thanks!
i love the calendars.. my husband and i enjoy them every month and cant decide which one to use. .since they are all so beautiful

Leaves for the work PC, snowflakes for the work laptop, and yarn for the home laptop. Thank you so much for the Mac friendly calendars. They’re much appreciated!
It’s all about the yarn this (and almost every) month. Yarn heart, calendar on right. Thank you!
I’ve enjoyed using your calendars for awhile now! It’s great being greeted by a new one each month. Your photographs are excellent. I hope this encourages you to continue.
I don’t use calendars in general, but I always enjoy seeing what you guys cook up each month.
Love your calendars. I forgot to mention last month, but I did use your I Voted one. I switch between your calendars and pics of my own depending on the month.
Please don’t discontinue your calendars. I admit that I don’t post when I download the calendars (bad me!) but I look forward to changing mine every month. This month I chose the leaf photo…very relaxing to gaze at amidst the throes of internet shopping.
SOOOO beautiful once again. I am using the heart yarn, what colorway is that?? thanks for the wonderful calendars all year, I have truly enjoyed them.

I love the calendars. I chose the calendar with the moon and mountains.
I always use the calendars! I always love having some really great designs to choose from. Thanks so much for providing them.
I also love the calendars & use them every month on my work computer (though I’m still waiting for someone to comment about the yarn!) - This month I grabbed the 3rd - Leaf w/calendar on right. Thanks so much!
I LOVE the Sandia Peak moonrise!! Too awesome. Your calendars always remind me of home and make me smile. :o)
Yay! Thanks ScoutJ
I download them for my work computer every month. It’s so nice to see something lovely and nature- or yarn-inspired in my work environment.
Thanks for the calendars. I love them. This month I took the leaf with the calendar on the right. Have been a visitor for a few months.
I’ve been using the calendars now for past few months and love the photos and the ease of having a calendar on my desktop that’s easy to read. I use the yarn photos mostly regardless of whether the computer is my home system or my work desktop.
I really love using the calendars the two of you make! Don’t stop making them please (and thank you again for making some with the calendar on the left)! I love the yarn heart one and will use it!
leaf on the right for me!
I put the leaf on the home computer, deciding between the yarn and snowflakes for work. I’ve been using them since mid-summer, keep up the good work!
I look forward to getting a calender for my desktop every month. Great work keep it up. The moon on the left was the one for me!
I use them every month. Since I work on 2 different computers at work and one at home I very often use them all. A different one on each computer.
I love them.
Thanks for the pretty calendars every month.
I snagged one of each design and will switch through the month. Please don’t discontinue them.. I love them and take at least one every month (except last month because they were mostly political and I didn’t want to “advertise” who I voted for - I have enough trouble with my Repub. inlaws.. lol)
Your photography and cynthia’s handiwork would be missed on my desktop!
I LOVE the calendar pages! I use them every month as the background for my desktop- eye candy and practicality all in one.
I even tell others to go look them up. Please don’t stop
Calendar #1 for me. Love your colors and photography.
I LOVE the calendars and can’t wait to jump on each month to see what you put together. The yarn pics work at home and the others for the work computer. Your photography is so awesome!
I use them almost every month and I love the yarn ones especially. (the political ones would have been frowned at my State job
But go Obama! Anyways, yes and thank you - I love them and I have my clients comment all of the time.
I love them!!! The yarn option is always my at-work desktop!
I use them each month. I choose the moon on the left this month. I love your calendars. Thank You!!!
I love the calendars! I’ve been checking them out for a while, but I just started using one last month. This time, I picked the snowflakes. Thanks for doing them!
i love your calendars and have been using them on my desktop for the past several months. I especially love the nature one’s, and the Barak Obama one. I hope you all will continue.
I chose #1. I always go with the one with yarn or fiber in it and I use it at home and work and get great compliments on it at work! I would be terribly disappointed if you stopped, but I also understand the time constraint! Thanks for all you do.
My 8 year-old daughter *loves* the calendars each month, and never forgets to remind me when it’s time for her to choose another one (I have no say in the selection, apparently). Thank you for giving them to us!
I love your calendars. I use them every month. I took the leaf but might change to the black and snowflakes later on.
I chose the leaf image with the calendar on the right.
I also would like to thank you for sharing these. It is so nice to have a nice background and it inspires me to keep my desktop clean and organized! Happy December!
I use these every month. I usually go with the yarn ones but this time I choose the landscape with the moon and snowflakes. It seems more Christmasey to me. lol
I’ve been using these monthly for about a year. Thank y’all for doing them!
I download them about 80% of the time……(I alternate between your calendars and sexy pictures of David Tennant, the current Doctor Who). This month was hard, though…….all the pics are too pretty.
BTW, thanks for doing the dates on both sides of the pic…….all my icons live on the left side of my screen, so the calendar-right pics are perfect!
Sorry that I haven’t often commented before; I use one of your calendars every month, and I absolutely love them. This month was difficult, but I think I’m going with the landscape with moon and snowflakes.
PLEASE don’t stop doing them…I’d be lost without one of your calendars on my laptop!
I love love love your picture calendars - I look forward to the 1st each month now since September so please please please keep doing them - I always get great comments from others when they see my desktop = I’m a computer trainer and so lots of people see my desktop!! Keep ‘em coming - I love having a choice of photos each month - I always choose the one with yarn and the calendar on the right if that’s an option - I’m picking the yarny one this month too - sometimes I change halfway through the month, though, if I can’t choose!! Keep it going, I think they are fantastic and thank you thank you thank you!!
Yep, LUV the calendars
And sometimes change several times a month, depending on my mood.
Nice yarny pics, complete with the month - if you only knew how many times I minimize my browser windows or programs to check dates.
Please keep them - And thanks for all the ones you’ve done in the past.
I look forward to your calendars every month. I chose the leaf with the calendar on the left. I totally appreciate the time you take to do these. Thank you!
I love them. I use them every month. I picked the yarn-heart with a left calendar, since I’m a mac person. Thank you!
I love how beautiful they are and variable…PLEASE don’t stop making them…your eye is fabulous!
I love these and get a new one every month. Heck sometimes I come in mid-month and get a different one.
This time, I took one of the leaves with the calendar on the right. Very pretty!
Thanks so much for sharing. I hope you continue!
Absolutely! I download them almost monthly - usually try them all out before settling on one. (Honestly - personally didn’t care for most of November’s - was just kind of sick of all of the politics - but it just gave me an excuse to take a pic of my pup to use.)
I love the yarns ones - the moon ones - the flora ones…just keep ‘em coming.
I also pass the website around the office and your work is seen on many monitors around the place.
Please please PLEASE keep them coming! it’s been a highlight of every month since the beginning, and anyone seeing my desktop always is envious. I appreciate the left calendars (yay for Macs!), and took the leaf this time - very calming. will probably switch to the dramatic black & white later on. I’d donate (to y’all or a cause) if that would help you feel the love!
My anticipation starts to grow the last couple of days every month. I look forward to every new set. A lonely, last leaf for me this time.
I happen to love the calendars and use them every month. I usually download all of the calendars. In this case, the yarn pic is on my home computer and one of the non-yarn pics goes on my desktop at work. This month it will be the leaf one. Last one I had the Obama picture on my work desktop. Many of my coworkers loved the Obama pic and asked where they could get it. I don’t always comment every month, but i have been downloading the pics since the beginning and use them every month on my desktop(s). Thanks again for providing them.
I love the calenders, please don’t stop. I downloaded the moon one this month, though I normally go for a yarn one.
I use them most months as well and absolutely love them.
I took the last one this month, but it’s maybe too dark for the Holiday season so this might be a month that I’ll skip. But in general I love them and I think you should continue making them.
Snagged up the leaf one with the calendar on the right side.
Lovely as always!
Oh, and I forgot to mention! I’ve only been using them for 3 months, but that was because I used to never use wallpapers on my computer. But I do now. And yours are the only ones I use. Please keep doing them!
Oh, please don’t stop posting the calendar. I am using them each month.
This month is tough thou, can’t decide between the yarn heart and the leaf macro. Will grab both and change them every other week.
;o)
I’ve taken the snowflake one this month. I download one every month and the guys at work love seeing what the next one will be each month
I have been using these calendars for over a year. This month I took the leaf with the calendar on the right. I used to have to move icons around as the calendar moved from right to left. I was very happy when each desigh was available a choic of calendar placement. Keep them coming.
Oh Scout! I LOVE your calendars!! I eagerly anticipate each month’s beauty! I download one to my home laptop and one to my work laptop, so I get to enjoy 2 of your beauties! I even switch them mid-month sometimes for variety! PLEASE keep up the good work!
I commented on my co-workers background at orientation which means I have been grabbing your calendars since last October. I love when the first of the month comes around. You are so talented. Thanks!
I love the calendars and have been downloading them for about a year. I look forward to what will come each month. Thanks!
I love the calendar pics — please keep them coming!
I love them too - they really cheer me up on my work computer! I look forward to them every month too!
I love them a frined showed me the site and i have went to it ever since
I get one (or two) every month. Please keep them going. I would love to see a Christas tree or something festive for December though. Thanks!
Please don’t get rid of the calendars! I just recently found your site [in October] and have been using the calendars ever since! They add a bit of yarny goodness to my desktop at work.
I LOVE the calendars! Pleas don’t stop posting them. I look forward to them every month!
I absolutely love the calendars every month! My desktops would be less appealing with out them. I find myself at the first of the month checking and double checking to see if the new month has been posted yet. Please keep it up!
I downloaded the leaf onto one computer and will probably download the black mountains onto the other.
I snagged the yarn <3 with the calendar on the right hand side.
Thank you!
Always a lovely highlight for a new month is it add a beautiful background to my lap top.
I look forward to the beginning of every month thanks to the beautiful calendars that you post for us! I usually pick a yarny one and especially like it when they are multiple colors.
Please don’t stop posting calendars….I’d be lost as to what day of the month it was! LOL!
Ooh, love love *LOVE* your calendars! My daughter introduced me to them last month, so November 2008 was my first download … and yesterday at 7:30 a.m. I was already checking your website to see if the December one had been posted. Thanks so much!
Please keep the calendars coming! I started using them a few months ago and I’m hooked. I checked 4 times yesterday to see if they were up yet. Today, I grabbed the leaf w/calendar on the right (it was a tough choice as usual).
Thank you thank you thank you thank you!
I love your calendars– please keep em coming! I always choose one with a yarn photo because I love yarn (of course) and you have such fabulous photos. Thanks so much!!
Oh yes, please continue to make the calendars! I use them every month. It’s so handy to have the dates right on my desktop. This month I chose the leaf picture, but I usually alternate between a yarn picture and one of the scenery ones.
Yep, love the calendars. I use them at work and consistently get compliments on how pretty they are. Thanks!
I use these every month for both my desktop & laptop. (My mom & sister use them too.) I like to use a different one for each computer. Keep making them please as I look forward to them each month.
I also use these calendars every month, one for my laptop and one for my work computer. I used the aspen leaf for my home laptop and the mountain one for my work computer. I picked the calendar on the left for both computers. I look forward to new calendar wallpaper every month!
Thank you so much!
I just started reading your blog and using your calendars about 3 months ago. I love them! This month I had a really hard time deciding which I wanted. I also chose the aspen leaf. For some reason, this time, they seem a little fuzzy on my desktop… But I look forward to them every month. Keep up the great work.
I look for them and use them every month. I use one on my desktop and then pick another one for the laptop. There are times when I’ll even change them up during the month. The calendar portion has been a little fuzzy when stretched out lately.
I love your calendars! I’ve been using them at work for the past year. This month it’s the yarn heart (I almost always go with the yarnie ones), although I love the others you come up with too.
I love the calendars. I always choose the most colourful ones as over here in the UK and especially Wales it has been very wet and cold and dark. I also loved the Obama ones and will miss seeing him this month.
I absolutely love your calendars! I hope you keep making them!
Love them! Use them! I got the mountains, cal on the left.
Thank you!!
I use your calenders every month and this month I love the heart shaped yarn one!! Just wanted to say thanks!
i snagged one! it’s the first time i have, but i haven’t been reading your blog for very long. i grabbed one of the leaf ones.
I love your calendars! I chose the Aspen leaf. I have only been using them for a few months, ever since I got my laptop. It is very convenient to have a calendar right there on the desktop when I am on the go.
I download every month……Love them!
I download your calendars every month - I love them! I rotate through them as my background on my second monitor.
I have chosen the leaf with the calendar on the left. I love the subtle colors and focus on nature. Your calendars allow me to eliminate the boredom on my work computer.
Hey, I have been downloading your calendars for a very long time now. I’m not sure when I started but in the past I have chosen images of yarn, sunsets, raindrops etc. This month I chose the leaf. I may switch to the moon scene in a few weeks just to keep it real.
Thanks
Hey…..ever consider doing a calendar (a whole year in advance)? You could do a yarn-centric calendar and a pretty picture calendar. And if you’re really ambitious, a page-a-day calendar!
I use one every month! Please don’t stop doing them! I took the leaf with the calendar on the left this month.
I also love your calendars, and use them on my work desktop. Every month I get a comment about how beautiful they are (I must add that I use a non-yarn image, for the uninitiated!)
I hope you can keep them coming!
Scout (and Cynthia), I use and love your desktops each month - I use them at work and at home and regularly get compliments on how nice they are. Thanks so much for your hard work!
I just discovered your calendars in October and I love having a different one every month, keep up the good work!
OK I always download 2 every month. I have to monitors for my work computer (a mac) and it brings some joy to my day.
I look forward to your calendars every month. My husband, who is not a fiber freak like myself, also enjoys seeing which one I select to download. Please don’t stop! We love them!
I download your calendars every month. My work colleagues always comment on how lovely they are, and they are inspiring me to get an SLR (maybe for Xmas) so that I can take nicer photos (not as nice as yours I’m sure). Thanks!
I have been using your calendars for well over a year (I think almost as long as you’ve been making them!), and I seriously look forward to the first of the month because of them–no joke. I understand that woman’s got to do what a woman’s got to do, but please know that your work is very appreciated and useful! I chose the leaf design this month. Thank you!!
I absolutely love your calendars and use them every month. They’re stunning and I hope you continue to share them with us!!
I love your calendars and use one each month. They were a joy when I was living out of the country and got to see the wonderful NM sky. I usually choose the yarn picture, but this month I chose the leaf–it is lovely. Someday I plan to buy yarn from you, but I am still working through a large stash of my own! Thanks so much for a wonderful site.
Thank you for the calendar pages. I found you as the election season was in full swing, and began to download your beautiful, inspiring graphics on my work desktop. The December leaf is simple and lovely. Thanks for your creativity and generosity…………Sally in San Diego
I found the calendars on your website six months ago and have been using them ever since. They give me a fantastic new background for my desktop every month! I know you are super busy, so I really appreciate your work and kindness in sharing them with us for the last year and a half!
I love the calendars and can’t wait until you post the new ones. I like being able to change my desktop each month. This month I used the third one. I’ve also given out your website to lots of other people who have admired your calendar on my desktop.
I love the desktop calendars. I love your photos and at the first of the month the very first thing I do is go look for the new calendar/photo and put it on my desktop to enjoy all month. Of course I love the yarn pictures and choose yarn plus the calendar to the right. Thank you so much for doing these. It is the little things that bring joy into my life and your photos plus the calendar add that little bit of joy to my day everyday when I log on to my computer at work.
Keep the calendars coming! They are just gorgeous! I took the moon one for now…
Many thanks for making these available for us all!
I love the calendars, and I use one every month. This month I chose the snowflakes with the calendar on the right.
Thanks so much to you and to Cynthia!
Leaf on the left, thanks! I’ve been using your calendars on my computer at home for the past few months — love them. Thanks!
I just started reading your blog last month - and downloaded the original and updated versions of the november calendar. this month I chose the yarn one - love those colors…and the heart! thanks!
Don’t stop! I love the calendars. Thanks for giving them to us.
I love them! I picked the yarn heart with the calendar on the right for my work desktop, and will pick one of the yarn ones for the home computer when I get on next. I like the yarny ones the best, although this month’s leaf is absolutely stunning! I love the photography ones, too, but I’m in love with the yarn, and everyone needs to know it! Thanks for doing these!
I just discovered them a few months ago and I LOVE the yarn ones!! Where else am I going to find a monthly digital calendar with YARN on it?! Please don’t stop!
I absolutely use your calendars every month…I LOVE them! It’s so nice to be able to change the desktop frequently, and frankly, your photography kicks ass. Thank you so much, and please keep posting them!
I love your calendars. It’s like getting a new surprise every month.
this time I took the second one from the bottom with the snowflakes.
I love ‘em! I took the bottom one this month. I don’t take one every month, but it’s usually b/c I have a picture I want to look at for a while instead. I’ve loved, loved the Obama calenders! Thank you for them! xx
I love the calendars, put them on my work computer every month. I even decided the other day that I don’t need to buy a 2009 wall calendar for my office, I’ll just look at the one on my desktop! Thanks for doing them!
I download every month. Love them! You might also be interested in Perdita (knit bracelet/wrist cuff) from Knitty Summer 06.
I love them and pick one each month. This month, I chose the leaf one. So pretty.
Thank YOU!
Please please keep the calendars coming. I use them each month both at home and work. It’s nice to get to look at something fresh and beautiful each month.
I just started using the calendars in October and I LOVE them! It is so handy to have the calendar on my desktop and the calendars have become indispensable for me–I love having such beautiful artwork combined with such a practical tool.
I took the leaf with the calendar on the right - I always use your calendar on my desktop. Thank you so much for doing them!
Love and use the calendars! Thank you…
I have been downloading them every month. I pick one for my Mac and one for my work PC and that way I have something pretty to look and I know what day it is.
Thank you for the calendars. I look forward to them every month and always get compliments on them. Usually do the nature ones, occasionally the yarn.
love the calendars! I’ve used them every month since the beginning and they make my heart happy everytime I turn my computer.
Everyone comments on them and I tell them where to get one.
I look forward every month to the new calendar page for my computer. I think my favorite one was in November for Obama!! Please keep ‘em coming.
I always look forward to your calendars. I set them as the background on my computer. Please don’t stop!
I am currently using the 3rd one from the top for my desktop right now. Absolutely love them! I download them every month!
Scout, thanks for the calendar - Last month was my first, I saw the Obama calendar and had to put it up (so awesome!!!) And came back for a new one this month - your photos are beautiful and I love the designs, using the leaf one right now and loving it!
Scout, I can’t tell you how much I look forward to getting and downloading you calendars each and every month. I have two computers at work (one is a laptop), and I just looked and I’ve downloaded more than one calendar every month since the beginning of this year. I’ve just started putting one on my desktop too. I always get great comments from my co-workers on the photographs, especially the calendar with Obama and his wife. I don’t talk politics in the office, but it was a subtle, yet, elegant way to make my position known. Please keep them coming, as I really enjoy them. The hardest thing every month is deciding which one to pick, so often times I pick more than one.
I downloaded the yarn with the heart and I’m about to get one of leaves. Please keep up the great work.
I absolutely love the calendars and can’t wait for the first of each month. This time I took heart yarn for the home PC and the leaf for the work PC always with the calendar on the right. I’ve been downloading them since the beginning and my all time favorite was July 2007 Zulu. That one inspired me to go out and buy my own set of Zulu necklaces in the same colors. Most of the time I pick the yarn ones because your yarn is so beautiful. Thank you so much for doing these.
love the calendars - I took the heart with the calendar on the right. Thank you so much for great gift.
Oh yes, please do keep on doing the calendars!!!! I only found you 4 months ago, and your calendars are a great help to me; my husband likes them too. This month, I chose the leaf one with the calendar on the right (and by the way, November’s calendars were especially terrific :o).
Thank you!
I absolutely love the calendars you guys put together. This month I was completely torn between the yarn hearts and the leaves. I’m going to put the moon and the hills on my work desktop and the leaf on my personal computer.
I download a calendar every month. I love them and have gotten compliments on them at work.
It was a very difficult decision this month. I picked the top one (I always take one with yarn!), but would have gladly used any of the 3 designs. Maybe I’ll come back and download another one to switch later in the month.
I’ve only just found your calendars and would hate to lose them so soon after. I’ve downloaded the moon one to my work computer (Internet Usage Policy be damned!) and I can’t wait to see what January brings.
Your calendars are very beautiful, convenient, and would absolutely be missed! I look forward to seeing more!
I download your calenders every month… they’re all I have used as desktops since you first started them. I would definitely miss them if you stopped doing them!
