So, I gifted all of the felted projects

and didn't take a picture - oh well - I got more wool for christmas! the felted trivets worked out really well, although Mom kept burning her hand when she (about every 2 minutes or so) would lift the crock of onion soup to check if the table was getting hot - it wasn't - so she's a convert.

I saw Aunt Donna's felted hats - before and after - they're awesome - totally awesome - I told her that I need the pattern. Unfelted they look like rastapharian caps - felted - they're tres chic.

I'll be sure to take some pix of the next felting projects (Mom got me a book of felted purses) -

Knitting Projects



More knitting - for christmas presents

But my latest craze is felting. for my first project, I felted a "hat" which has turned into a bowl - It was pretty cool, and now I'm hooked - The cat will be lucky if I don't throw him in the washer to see if he will felt. Pictures of felted projects to follow soon.

It's that time of the year...



Lights aglow and knitting projects - so far this holiday season I've knitted 5 scarves for "gifting". 4 of them were donated to my and friends' "adopted families" and 1 of them was for a friend who is participating in a Secret Santa and their gift recipient requested "funky scarf" (can do!).

The picture is of one of the donated scarves - for a 5 year old who likes pink!
