Thing a day, day twenty six

Sleepingsheeptad26

In the final stretch for Thing a day!

I got sort of lazy because of the snow. I spent the morning playing with my daughter in the snow and helping my dad with the shoveling. Then watched the movie Bolt with my daughter. So this is just finishing the amigurumi sleeping sheep I startedon day 24. I had some worries about how it was going to turn out. I like it!

The pattern is here.

Thing a day, day twenty four

Sleepinglambstarttad24

More crochet this week! I started a amigurumi, a sleeping baby sheep pattern. The body seems fine but I don’t know about the head. Hopefully it will come together once all the parts are done. I just have to do the arms, legs, ears and face!

The pattern is here

Thing a day, day twenty three

Heartearringtad23

I had a doctor’s appointment Tuesday afternoon. This was the first time going to this doctor and wasn’t sure how long he makes patients wait. Instead of bringing a book or magazine, I decided to bring my crochet. After filling out paperwork and the usual new patient stuff, I only had time to make 1 of these hearts (they are going to be earrings) before being called in! I have another doctor’s appointment on Thursday so hopefully I can finish the earrings there (although there is a big snowstorm coming!)

The pattern is here.

Thing a day, day twenty two

Once again, behind on posting my TADs. I can’t believe it’s almost over. The month sure flew by!

The twenty second TAD is actually just finishing up previous TADs. I don’t know if that counts but it’s all I have. I wanted to make sure they were done and didn’t want to procrastinate any further.

We’re due to see Sienna’s friend, Emma, soon so wanted to make sure to finish the hair clip I started for her.

And I also finished the cat pillow I was crocheting last week. I think it came out really cute and so did Sienna! I wanted to show a picture of her little hands grabbing it off the table and then her showing it off (although the photo is blurry, sorry!) I might have to make her her own cat pillow.

My thing a day for today is a cat pillow. The start of a cat pillow anyway. It’s a crochet pattern that I got from here. I think it will turn out cute!

TAD 2010-11 Mentoring

Img_1034

A few weeks ago, someone contacted me through one of the meetup groups I am a member of and asked me if I would be her crochet mentor. Jane is a senior in high school and needs to learn and present a new skill to a panel as part of her senior graduation requirement. Today, we met up and went through a couple of basic crochet stitches and doing a couple of rounds (She needs 15 hours to complete this projects, so more lessons later!). She was a real natural and it was a lot of fun sharing. So, while she crocheted, I also started taking apart another sweater (the gray balls in the picture).

Thing-a-day Day 10 'Pretty in Pink' Shoulder Wrap

I really got the urge to work with pink today and so as you can see I did.

This shawl is worked in a basic trellis pattern. Shaping is created through beginning each row with 7ch and 1 dc into 4th ch.

You can access the free pattern at The Sunroom

TAD - Day 10: Deerstuff's Coloured Dreams: "Lucky Love & Pansies" ;)

Well, I’ve been “busy like a bee” all day, but as I’m trying not to become too stressed, I found time (among other things) to paint (with acrylics and permanent markers) some paper hearts I made a few days ago for Valentine’s Day and to make an easy chocker style necklace (on memory wire) featuring crocheted pansies.

Enjoy them!

Thing Ten: Matryoshka cork

Matryoshkacork

I got such a kick out of Kimberly Pye's Cork Knights the other day that I had to go check out the patterns and ended up playing around to make my own Matryoshka cork cover design.

I think my other corks are jealous.
