What I've been doing all day every day..

My boyfriend has summer school, along with my other roommate and several of my friends. Whoever isn't in summer school has a summer research job, which leaves me all by myself Monday through Friday from 8-5. So I've had to occupy my time with knitting, crocheting, and general crafting. Oh the horror! So here are some of my recent projects. You can see way more pictures on my facebook page. Enjoy :)


 Green market bag I made for Jan at JanMadeIt


 Baby blanket I made for this beautiful little guy! It was my first shot at designing a baby blanket. How'd I do?



This beautiful young lady, Lorelei Decker is VERY special. She is a recent highschool graduate of my old highschool, Putnam City North. She is battling Hodgkin's Lymphoma, but if you get the pleasure of meeting her you could never tell! Her adament happiness and optimism during such a hard period of her life is such a treasure to witness. Here is the link to her CaringBridge page if you would like to keep track of her and keep her in your thoughts! The picture above is her in a prayer shawl I knitted for her. Blue for the thunder, of course :)


 James Harden beard I made for one of my friends. The original intent was for him to wear it to game 6 of the NBA finals...but obviously that did not pan out. Oh well! better luck next year i suppose. THUNDER UP!


My friend (pictured) had a birthday last week, and I wanted to make him something really cool! Turns out that this is my favorite hat pattern now!


Hello Kitty :)


One of my general craft projects. I was going to buy some lace trim, then I was going to make some lace trim, but I ended up just crocheting a border around the edge. I like them :)


HOBBES! One of my favorite creations. :)

If you like anything you see, please visit my facebook page and "like" it. I would appreciate it very much! I also do custom orders if you want a different colored market bag, hat, or anything you can think of!

Stay crafty my friends.

Guess the project: rows 6-8

So, I was not expecting to have much business this summer..but I was wrong! That means I haven't been able to crank out rows of this blanket as quickly as I would like. :(

Here are rows 6, 7, and 8! Once I get to row 10, I'm going to start on the rows for the next character so that you guys have the opportunity to guess both characters!




See if you can guess who it is! :)

Stay crafty my friends.
