Fair isle knitting

Giving it a try.

Watched some helpful videos on YouTube

My very first thing ever:

Miniature top hat.


House shoes 2.0

You may remember my struggle with SHOES

Since then I have done a few more pair for family and friends.

And the ones that started it all:

Good news: he still loves them!


BIG Hook!

My husband creeped out a few days ago and I could hear power tools and saws and such.
I had no ides what her was doing out there.
Imagine my surprise when he came in the house with this:
Crocheted a quick square out of rope. 40 mm hook. That is bigger than a size Z!
Hey, now I can crochet him that hammock he has been wanting. 
:)

Fingerless gloves....

Or wrist warmers.
Whichever you want to call them.
I love making these.
They are very quick to work up.
I have been crocheting them.
Haven't knitted a pair yet.

A slightly new obsession of mine. Making toys!
I love it.
