I'm finding pics of things I made and forgot to post....





I will be better in 2007 about posting pics of FO's. Not that I believe anyone is actually reading my blog, but just to keep track of things myself.



So here is something I made for a fantastic lady in the Christmas Stocking swap. The next photo are the goodies I recieved. I just luuuuuuuuurve the quilted stocking!!

Then there is a picture of some flip top mittens I made for Heather. Smoking mittens she says. Then there is a cute crocheted bag I made for Chrystal. I made calorimetry for Candace, but I forgot to take a picture.

Breakfast Club Swap


This was the last swap that I did before Christmas and what a pain in the ass it turned out to be. The organizer went missing, so I took over (wise move) But alas, its almost finished and my partner received and was happy so I guess thats all that matters. (I received some pretty cool stuff too)

Knitting Challenge Entry - Purse-O-Many Colours




The challenge was that it had to be knit in this garter lace stitch. It didn't matter what the FO was. So of course I chose a purse. Check out the many FO bags and purses that I've done. I kind of like it. Of course Amy claimed it for her own. I think it will be her lunch bag since she doesn't actually carry a purse.

Pet Swap






See I have done something since Christmas. Amy and Lucy tell me the dino dog sweater is very 'scene'. Whatever that means. This was a package I sent to a little poodle in Guelph. Cute er wha?

The big ole bone mat was my entry into the latest crochet challenge. I didn't win. Big surprise there, but I will keep on trying. I have even entered the knitting challenge. I'll post that later. Check out the cute lil felt bones. I'd make some for Spencer, but he'd tear 'em to shreds.
