HALLOWEEN!!

To start off the Halloween festivities we went to a pumpkin painting/carving contest today.
Izzie would not stay put and met a girl he enjoyed hugging and kissing on.
Lola won best pumpkin and got a little prize.
Maisie was a great helper and I think she had a good time too ;)

Fun with Felting

It's that time of year again..
time to get out the yarn and start knitting and crocheting..
This year I am learning to felt. So far I have made a couple
of hats and a stocking... I really enjoy the process and love the
way that the socking turned out.
Even though the object doesnt change much it's exciting for me to
put it in the washer and see what comes out.




Before Felting..




After



The latest felted hat..
Four hats later I am finally liking the pattern I am coming up with.
