Swap Project

Just finished this one this morning. I signed up for an Amigurumi kitty swap over on "Swap-Bot" . Someone else likes them but can't make them so I decide to make one for her and she can make me something else that she enjoys making. I need to make up another kitty amigurumi, I think I will make up a different one and not send the partner the same kitty.

I will try to post more pictures of everything that I make up for you all to see. God bless and have yourself a great day.

I am back with more photos

Here is my last crochet Birthday gift. The party was postponed and set to another date this Sunday. so I had more time to make a toy for my daughter's friend. I also made a pair of socks to go with it.





Here is a picture of the first bag I made, it didn't felt the way I would have liked it. I think it is to thick I wanted a thinner bag so I made a second one. The picture below is a much nicer bag to my liking anyway. I have divided slots inside so I can separate my thing. I like it much better.



I am not sure what you as a reader would like. I am asking if you would like to see more photos or would you like to do more reading of things I do?

More Knitted Toys

More knitted toys, My daughter has a Birthday Party to go to this weekend and I am never to sure of what gift to give. Now a days people just give gift cards, but I like to give something handmade and unique. I am working on another toy for the party, but if I don't have time to finish it I will give this one.




I have been thinking about starting my own podcast, but yes but, I don't think I will only because I can not be consistent on updating my blog weekly. Besides I wouldn't know what to talk about. What would you talk about on a podcast anyway. There are alot of knitting podcast out there already.

I have done more knitting but just haven't gotten around to taking pictures. I have made two felted bags just because the first one I didn't like. I would have made another one if the second one didn't turn out. I will try to getting around to taking photos and posting for you to see.

My son turned 10 yesterday and I didn't make him anything but I did get him a mp3 cd player something that he wanted, only because he likes to use mine. He is the little guy in the picture of the soctopus toy above. Thats all for now so take care and God Bless.

New Year

Well the new year has arrived and I have been busy with my puppies. I still have one puppy left looking for a new home. He is 3 months old now. The puppies were ready yo go at 6 weeks but because it was Dec. 23 too close to Christmas I didn't advertise, only because I don't want them to go to someone buying for a gift and the person getting the gift doesn't want it. It is a really big job taking care of a puppy. Sure they are cute but they need work too.

Update the puppies are all gone to new homes. I was a little ticked off with the one lady that told me her sad story, so I reduced my asking price to make her and her (everyone laughs at her) daughter be able to get a puppy. Some how it wasn't supposed to be she didn't come to get the dog and I did get my asking price from another lady.

Enough of the puppies I have been busy with birthday gifts for my childrens friends. My son has yet another B.D. party to go to for this weekend and I need to get a couple pair of socks done. My daugther has a B.D. party for March 1st and I would like to make Sheldon for her. I have already done one and now working on a second one.

Current work in progress

Here is the picture of the socks I am working on, this is still the first sock. I feel that I am a slow knitter in the summer time only because there is so much work to be done outside.


Here is the Bubby that I made I am not sure if I will send this off to my swap partner or if I should make something else. Yes I am in another swap this one is amigurumi swap over on "SwapBot.com". This pattern I got from Knitty.


Here Is the picture of the little bag I felted.Its only 3 in tall. The heart is the button that I need to sew on. I think it's cute.



This Picture is of the sweater that I won from The Old Mill Knitting web site. I am still working on the back as you can see. This is taking me a long time to do because I need to consentrate the pattern is p2 k1 p2 k3 rep. I get mixed up if I don't.

Critter Swap

Ok I joined yet another swap and my package arrived yesterday and now I am here to share all the goodies I got with you,well you can't really have them but you can look at everything I got. When she sent it she wrapped up all the goodies in the left over ball of yarn an I need to unwrap it to see what was inside. This is a piture of before I unwrapped it.



Now here is the picture of it all unwrapped for you to see.



There is Bunny buttons, sock needle protectors, stitch markers, row counter and a little keychain sweater.

I had fun doing this swap, I would do one again if one came up.
Have a good day and God Bless.

Flowers

Now the bunnies are eating all of my sisters flowers in her flower beds. So I wanted to make her a flower, but as usuall my husband likes it and wants to put it up on the tv stand. So now I need to make more flowers but they are cute. I wouldn't mind having a few on the tv stand, just to brighten up the place. I shall make blue and purple ones and what ever other colour I have in my stash.



What do you all think, leave a comment. God bless and have yourself a great day.

New toys

Wow the kids like my crocheting so they are looking up patterns for me to make, and this is one my son picked out a pikachu. He likes pokemon. His eyes are a little off but my son likes it.



Here is a picture I got of the bunny just outside my step.



I just needed to show you all a picture of the close up bunny. Enjoy your day and God Bless.

Little Bunny

Here we have alot of rabbits running around out in the yard, yes wild ones. My sister lives next door to me and says I am always scaring the bunnies, so I decided to make one for here so she could have one that will never run away. But my hubby likes it so he claimed it now I need to make another one for her. Good thing I didn't tell her that I was making it for her she might be upset. No need to worry I can make up a new one tonight.



Maybe I will pick out different colours for hers. Enjoy Your day and God Bless.

New toy

Ok here I am again this time with my sweater all finished up and it fits great. This time I am happy with the finished project (I can see myself actually wearing this one). No one is up to take a picture of me wearing it so this one will have to do.



It has a hood, I was thinking of putting a front pocket but then it migth be too bulky. The yarn is light for those cool summer evenings and for the fall.I might even wear it today. I need to go to the hospital for a mamogram (eeeh yuk). Every thing is alright for those of you who might be worried no lumps or anything. My mother had Breast cancer and past away just over 9 years ago and my Dr. is just making sure things are ok.

Now on to the new toy, yes I bought myself this only because I found it cute here's the picture.



Yes it's a i-cord machine. It works great. I did up this i-cord in about an hour. The cord measure just over 10 ft. My daugther has the spool one and does it by hand and it has taken her over 6 mths to make one about the same length. Here is a photo of hers.



Well that is all for this time around oh one more thing what I am now working on, I do have another pair of socks on the needles and I have a knitted bag. Just about done the bag so a few days I will have finished photos to show to everyone, enjoy your day and God Bless.
