what i've been up to lately...
its been awhile since i've posted last, so i figured i'd update, although i don't have any pictures quite yet...i have started working on a quilt, i got a few blocks done, and then i got busy with life and the likes. its one of those quilt block of the month things, so i have all the pieces already cut out and everything. i just have to get the right thread on my machine and find some time to work on it.
My brother requested this hat from a show called Firefly, or Serenity, i can't remember... its the same character, one's a movie, the other is a show, i guess... anyways, its this hideous hat, its red, orange, and yellow, with ear flaps and a big pompom on top. i cheated and crocheted instead of knit, but he likes the hat. I used Cascade 220 that i bought from KnitWitz. with the leftover yarn, i crocheted a cute little purse, and felted it. its a little small, but i followed a pattern. next time i know to make it a little bit bigger, this was my first experience with felting.
The other day i was at Joanns, and found this adorable book with crochet patterns for winnie the pooh characters. i got the yarn needed for Tigger, and so far, i have his face, ears, and one arm done. i went back and bought the yarn for pooh, but i set that project aside for the moment. now i'm knitting my first sock. just one sock for now, i started it on friday, and now i'm working on the foot of the sock, so i'm nearly there! i'm doing it for a sock pony. i'm going to go back to KnitWitz and buy more yarn to make a pair of socks for my dad's birthday. it sounds like fun...
anyways, i'll try to post again soon with pictures of everything...
