Still got the hook skillz...

Finished these yesterday for my dad's wife for Mother's Day. Blue silk chenille yarn that was a swap gift, some Lion Brand Suede for the edging, and two buttons from my button box. Simple, quick, and not exactly my best work, but they'll do. :)

And yes, they were also a project for the HPKCHC Defense Against the Dark Arts class. One down, two to go. ;)

Happy Birthday, Mom!

I finished these tonight as a birthday gift for my mom. (Her birthday was Friday, and while I had the first one done, I didn't get the second finished until tonight.)



She saw the glove I'd made for myself, and wanted a pair, too. So, I gave up on mine and made hers. :) (I'm weird like that. It's always more interesting for me to craft for someone else.) She loved the final results (as well as her card and dinner at her favorite restaurant last night), so I'd say her birthday was a success this year.

I'm starting to like these pointy sticks. Of course, I still love my hooks best, but I like not being tied to one kind of pattern. I've even started a new project, which is a purse to give Mom for Mother's Day. Let's hope I actually get it finished on time. Ha!

Woot woot, et wot?

So, yay! The bolero is done! Just finished it about twenty minutes ago. I love it already.


I still need to get crackin' on those afghan blocks, and one shawl (my mom said she didn't really want one, and would just prefer lessons on making granny squares). Oh, plus I gotta finish Ashley's hair tie. Yeeikes! So much to do, so little time.

Yippee!

Zoebat's bat is finished! I'll post pictures and a link to the pattern I used later tonight. For now, work calls.
