Here's a picture of the whole sweater. Not only is it done, but it fits!! I made a completely wearable sweater for myself. Yay me! Posted by Hello


It's done, it's done, it's done it's done it's done! The Wool-Ease Chunky sweater from the Yarn Girls book (Funky Rollneck Fun) is done. Just in time for that chilly July weather! I've been working on it since it actually was cold, in January. Did I mention it's done?? Posted by Hello

The finished green fuzzy bag! Here is a picture from the top. The pattern is here: http://www.fuzzygalore.biz/patterns/fuzzyknit.shtml Posted by Hello


Here is another shot of the finished bag. I'm not in love with it and it was a ton of work. Tripling the yarn made my hands cramp. On the plus side I learned how to do the continental knit because my hand was so crampy! I think my version of the bag is a bit too shallow (I had to cut it short because my green yarn was running low) and a bit too wide. However, it will make a good yarn project tote I think. I doubt I'd make it again. Posted by Hello


The fuzzy bag being blocked... Posted by Hello


Here's a shot of the fuzzy knitted bag's texture, closeup before felting. It's made of Crystal Palace Fizz held with Plymouth's Galway Highland Heather worsted held double. I nearly ran out of the green so I changed colors for the strap--Lamb's Pride Bulky. I really liked working with the Lamb's Pride and I hope to use it again. Posted by Hello

A new Booga Bag

Here are some pictures of my most recent Booga bag. My mom chose this yarn since it was a Mother's Day present for her. It's Noro Kureyon #46, the orange/tan/brown/purple colorway.

Before felting:

And two after felting:





I'm all Booga-ed out for now. On the bag front, though, the green fuzzy bag is nearly done!!
