Mock ups

At first i did not understand mock ups. I have begun using them and they help the client get the big picture.

Cute little gift

I used this tutorial for the hat

I did 10 rows of 2x2 rib then followed the pattern came out really cute. I did a pom pom instead of ears.

The blanket is just a simple granny square blanket embellished with baby girls initial.

Straight black hole cowl

My attempt at making this cowl i just used the black hole cowl bit did it straight i casted on 26 and followed the pattern until i was almost out of yarn. I used two ball of home town for the yellow and thick and quick for the brown. I also used N hook instead of P. The brown is longer than the yellow not sure why.

Infinity Scarf with zipper pocket

One lady on my facebook made one of these. I saw it again on Pinterest and had to have one. More research and i saw a infinity scarcf/clutch. So i made another scarf with a bag trying to make that  clutch/scarf. No go my scarf is bulky. But trial an error i know leave the bag out i think you need a two sided zipper to be able to tuck the scarf in and wear as a clutch.

Fabric haul

After Christmas my MIL the kids and I went shopping. We started at Foust Textiles in Kings Mountain, NC i bought the green black and white fabric off the $5 a lb table. 3 yds.

Finally made it to IKEA got the colorful fabric  1 yd. There were so many people in there you would gave thought they were giving something away.

Lastly we went to Hobby Lobby. I bought 1yd of stretch lace i plan to make some undies.
