so, that was my first 8 minutes of the day... before the pitter-patter of little feet. soon to be followed by their favorite thing to say "i'm hungry!" and then, "why did she get the red bowl? i don't want the yellow one!".. i'll spare you the rest.
today is my mom's birthday. this is what i made her:
i needle felted him and crocheted his hat and scarf. her Christmas tree is decorated in snowmen, so i think he will fit in nicely. he's about 3 inches tall. rather cute, if i do say so myself :)
yesterday, i had all these things in my head i kept thinking 'i need to blog that' - and today - nothin' poof! it's gone. this is why i have a so many stinkin' notepads and a palm zire full of notes - from what size shoes my kids wear to what type bag my vacuum cleaner needs. i forget stuff!
the new yarn swap is about to begin at Crochetville
this time it is Winter Wool
i'm pretty excited about this one. i sure hope everyone follows through and ship good wool to their partners.
i must get.... have one last gift to complete
I love the snowman! That's a great idea -- I have some felting needles that I should put to work! (I surely have plenty of wool too, oy). :)

Rebecca that snowman is adorable! Your mom is going to be thrilled with him!
ReplyDeleteGreat snowman!
ReplyDeleteThe snowman is so cute!!
ReplyDeleteI just saw some needle felted cuties somewhere else too today. Hmm, what does that mean? ;)
I think something is trying to tell me that I should get stuff to try needle felting! :D
Merry Christmas, Rebecca!
love the snowman!! He's a cutie patootie. Just signed up for the Winter Wool swap. Thanks for the comments on my seraphina. It's good ol' Lion Brand Wool Ease color: pines. It pretty much grabbed me by the color at the store and screamed by me or suffer my wrath. It took a while for it to tell me what it wanted to be, though.
ReplyDeleteAwesome snowman! Great job. I have been knitting almost 2 years now? I have become obsessed with it....love it!! Bet you will too!
