Tissue Box Cozy
After knitting my Urban Wrap, I was looking for a small item to knit and I found the tissue box cozy. I used 1 strand of Lion Brand Fun Fur in Lime Green, and 1 strand of turquoise. It only took about an hour to knit this little cozy. The pattern for the cozy can be found at

Today I will be crocheting around flip flops , and giving them to friends.

Urban Wrap

I am very happy with the way the Wrap turned out. I am wearing it still wet. I am going to finish blocking it now. But I couldn't wait to get it into my blog. The pattern for this wrap can be found at

Urban Wrap
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: Lion Brand Urban Wrap
I made this Urban Wrap using Lion Brand Homespun yarn in the color Corinthian. I stayed up until midnight last night finishing it, because I wanted to wear it tomorrow. So today I washed it and I am blocking it.

Fun fur Stripes scarf
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: Mexicana
I was shopping the other day at a fabric store that also sold yarn, and I came across some Lion Brand Fun fur Stripes. I had never seen this yarn before. So I decided to buy a couple of skeins of this yarn and make a quick scarf to see what the stripes would look like. I think it is cute. I like the stripes. My Mom is a real flashy girl. I think that I will give this scarf to her. The pattern for the scarf is very simple and is on the back of the yarn label. The color that I chose is called Mexicana.

Desert Boots
Now Playing: warm and comfy
I had some left over yarn from my Bolero sweater, so I used the yarn to knit another pair of slippers. I wear slippers almost every day, so I needed another pair. These slippers are called Desert Boots. The pattern for the boots can be found at http://www.knitlist.com/97gift/desertboots.htm . The yarn that I used is Yarn Bee Icelandic Jewels, the color is dark citrine. I used two strands of yarn held together, so they are very warm, and comfy. The pattern is an easy pattern, just knit and purl. I have a button stash, because I love buttons, and found a button in my stash that matched my yarn perfectly.
