project swap

i've been super interested in doing a project swap with some one. i would really love to send some one some thing  i made and have htem send me some thing too! if ur interested please let me know!

hooded cowl

i took 200 yards of some scrap yarn that i had and had no idea what i was going to make out of it and made a cowl as a practice. and it didnt turn out as well as i wanted it to. it was alright but a lot shorter than i expected. so i just gave it a whirl anyways with my alpaca yarn and it looks AMAIZING! i'm very excited and the writter of the pattern changed it to fit what i wanted to use. i will post pictures soon. =)

naughty deer hat

i finnished a hat for myself this weekend. i loved it so much i made another one in a different color. but it turned out different. i trie to alter the pattern, and it didnt help all that much. it looked different but good different! So, the next thing i have on my needles is a naughty deer hat for my hubby. it was started at 6 pm today and i'm not quite half way finnished but it will be quick thats for sure! hats are so easy!

finnished half of my squirl mittens yesterday. soon, i swear they will be finnished!

ITS A GLOBAL FAMILY

As you may know i'm 22 years old. and this is my first time being away from my family! its hard to be away. and knitting has been a little bit of a comfort of mine. So its neat to see that there are people from all over the world looking at my patterns and projects! makes me very excited! i enjoy every step of this journy!

some one stop me!

This week so far, i've made 2 pairs of mittens, one cowl, (pattern will be up later) and now starting a new cowl.... Please... its a sickness... lol
