Pretty New Pin Cusion

I have been needing a pin cushion for so many years.

I've seen numerous styles I have really liked.

But when the tutorial for this was posted on http://jonag.typepad.com I knew I had to make one.

Happy New Year!

Dear 2010. I am glad to see the last of you. Here are the good things that happened in 2010 - and it is, sadly, a short list.




Thing 1. We added the small, annoying dog to our family. She fits in with the good dog and really helps keep things light and funny around here.





Thing 2: KNITTING!





Thing 3. The Escape Pod.





Please be a better year 2011!

Canned Ham Trailer Ornament!




Look what I made today!!!!


I'd been thinking hard about it for a couple of weeks and this morning the whole thing came together - so I rushed to the fabric store to get supplies, sat myself down and started working.











What could be better than a Canned Ham Trailer Ornament? Seriously!

Some Knitting and Crochet

New socks cast on last night - first socks in a couple of months!

Scarf - probably a Christmas present (if I can get over the fact that it didn't felt like it was supposed to)

Crocheted scarf - don't have enough of the blue so it will be finished with white and thereby "two-toned" (I will call it a feature - not an error)

One of the mittens I designed as a gift.

lacy, cob-webby scarf tah dah!


Finally! At long last - I persevered to the end and finished my first lace project. I am sooooo pleased with the result and have been wearing it constantly.
