Loads of News!

It's been awhile since I last posted, so that means for an awfully big post. OK, here we go...

My mom and I finished a purse for my younger cousin for her birthday. It uses the Fibanocci technique and all of her favorite colors!



This is one side....



And here's the other!

It also has a nice lining on the inside that is made of the same fabric as my purse.



I also made this purse from a kit I got for my birthday. It's a felted purse, and then you felt in the colorful roving with a needle. I also sewed on some shiny grass green beads. On the zipper there is a little ball of felt that I added some of the darker blue roving to.

Remember this bolero I'm making? (The picture's from the book)



I've finished the back, the left side, and I'm almost done with the right side. Next are the sleeves, and then I have to knit like 320 stitches around for the ribbing, which is 6cm long.





Yep, I finished my first of the pair of lace socks! Now I've been working on the second. One ball of Sea Wool knit all of that above.



And now for a bit of experimentation...



I cut up some plastic bags and then tied them together to make a ball of yarn, and now I'm knitting it up. We have the Erika Knight book that shows how to knit a shopping bag out of plastic bags, so that's where I got the idea.
