This weekend I went
to a craft sale... you know the kind, the annual Christmas craft shows. Full of
all kinds of things people make and sell.
I was surprised at
the knitted gifts there... there were (amongst several hundered exhibitors)
about 3 knitted gift stalls. Two of them were the knitted scarf
ones.
I mean the kind
where you just cast on 22 stitches and knit straight until the ball is done...
using some of the fun fur. very simple stuff :)
I was interested
because I have just been creating some things for a friend, who is expecting a
preemie any minute now.
I was inspired by
the craft show to knit up a couple of the fun fur scarfs for her older
children... one in cookie monster blue and another in a pink and purple 'fun
print'. The blue one is finished, and I'm just beginning the
other!
I crocheted a tiny
dress and bonnet for the baby, and also a bonnet for DD... a little on the big
side, but the ideas are just pouring in as to how I can improve it.
Hopefully...
pictures later!
