one lonely slipper
Mood:  not sure
Now Playing: This pattern just did not work for me.
I have some left over yarn from my Urban Wrap. So I decided to use it for a Small project. I decided to knit a pair of slippers, because I wear slippers, and give slippers as gifts a lot. So of course I could always use another pair of slippers. But this slipper is going to be a lonely slipper, it is never going to get a mate. I don't like the way it turned out at all. It doesn't fit right, and it was confusing to sew together. The pattern came from

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
Mood:  happy
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.
