Hello!

I found some treasure this week!
Right before my son was born my mom began knitting a sweater for me using what you see in the picture. Things got hectic when my son was born and they were put aside. After moving I thought they were lost. So now I'm going through boxes to move once again, 4 years later, and I found them! An awesome book great needles and really nice huge ball of yarn. Yay! Thanks Mom!

Thanks for reading!

Going Yarn Bonkers

Hello!

Went to Michael's arts and craft store today with my kids. We went a little bonkers with buying yarn. My son is very into colors and  kept telling me to get this color and that one, hahaha. 


I love when Michaels has sales like 4 for $10 or $0.99!
I'm going to enjoy using up all this yarn.

Thanks for reading!

Cowls

Hello!

I've been knitting these past few days with thick, bulky yarn and big knitting needles. The largest needles I have are size 15. I can't wait to be able to try larger ones.

So here are 3 cowls that  made. I didn't follow any pattern. They are not finished yet. I have to find buttons and sew in the stragglers. When they are fully finish I will post better pictures.

The Long Project: Vinny V

Hello!

This is one long project!
An update on the Vinny V WIP (work in progress)
So I knitted and attached the ears and eye patch. I snapped on the safety eyes. Cut and started to sew the mouth but haven't finished yet. Sewed the arms on. Still have to finish sewing the mouth, stuff the head/body and sew it closed and then attach the legs. Almost there! The pattern I'm using is from the book by Rebecca Danger called "Knit a Monster Nursery" (click to link to amazon.com)

Here are some pics:

Toddler Girl Hat

Hello! 
The baby bear hat that I made was so simple that I decided to make a hat for my daughter, since the dress didn't work out. 





This was quite fast to make. I used the same pattern for the baby bear hat but made a flower instead.


Thanks for reading!
