I have had 7 snow days this year, which is a lot for me. During the snow days, I tried to keep busy with different projects that I had on my list to do. There were fun snow days, but I have to say after two in a row I was ready to go back to work. Let me just say that there is nothing on TV during the day, so I watched movies a lot while working on my projects. Here are some projects I have finished during those snowy days as well as since then...
this is a wine bottle wind chime for my sister. I had been only using one wine bottle, but then I thought why not try to layer them. I like it so much that I am going to make me one with blue wine bottles. It also will give me another reason to drink a good bottle of wine.
My friend bought this yarn and asked me to knitt her some fingerless gloves. No problem, except that when I made these they ended up really long. I thought they would be ok, but the more I looked at them and thought about my friend's tiny hands I decided that they wouldn't work. I took them apart and will be trying them again, maybe with a different pattern.
I saw the pattern for this owl on a blog when I first began my obsession with owls and reading blogs. It was a free tutorial and I absolutly fell in L-O-V-E, love. This is the first one I have made. I plan on making more for my friends and family, even if they don't want one. I think for some of my family members I am going to make it a door stop and I will probably not put legs on her. They were kind of a pain in the behind.
Thank you to Toad's Treasures for the great tutorial!
