A Very Crafty Post

I've been feeling crafty lately. I got some great new toys for Christmas... two sets of Knifty Knitter Knitting looms! I made my first scarf in about 3 days time and I'm absolutely obsessed!

Here's the project in progess, along with the end result. I'm very proud of it.

Before Christmas, I crocheted this hat for my sister. It was not easy, as the instructions mistakenly said it would be. I had to rip it out and start over about 4 different times (though one of those times it was because I attempted to work on it after going out to dinner with my book club in Chicago, drinking more than a little sangria, all the night before we went to "Wicked." Didn't follow my own advice about drinking and yarning.) It matches her winter coat perfectly. So she'll get a scarf to match it before long, too.

Chances are, if you're related to me or a friend of mine, you'll be getting a scarf, a hat, or possibly both at some point in the future! I've got a list of projects and a big plastic tub full of yarn ready to go. (Darn it if Michaels and JoAnns didn't have massive yarn sales last week! WOO HOO!)

My latest project involves pink fur. Gotta love it! This is a present for a baby shower. Can you guess what it will be??? I'll post a picture of this one, once it's finished!
