What Have You Done For Me Lately?

With the holidays and all, I haven't written lately, so I thought I would post some stuff that I've been crafting recently. Remember "Walkmans?" Well, I joined the technological world of music and recieved an Ipod Nano for Christmas to replace my Walkman. Of course, I immediately thought "I need to make a case for this little thing!" Was I more excited about the prospect of making a case or getting an Ipod? I'm not sure. I dashed off a little purple cover, and I am sure I will make more considering the size of the player.

I found this chunky yarn and I couldn't help but make a pink and white scarf out of it. It reminds me of candy.

I also made a casual bag which is felted, wool and silk. I love felting because you have to wait for it. I put it in the washing machine and it is out of my hands. It turned out softer than I thought it would.

I crocheted this speckled hat in a way that makes it look knitted but is not. Tricky eh? I can only knit in a very primative way. Why do that when I can crochet?

Of course I always have five or six hundred projects going at the same time. One is the squares. You can see them here in different phases. A pillow is the goal; we will see. . . I will post it when I am done.

There you go. I have yet to figure out how to work out and craft at the same time, but I am sure there will be a way in the future. Look at what happened with music!
