The Yarn Art Cafe: September 2012
http://theyarnartcafe.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 2, 2012. I just finish this gift for a friend, who just had a baby girl! I decide to make her an infant sized owl hat. I have seen so many really adorable owl hats and patterns lately and wanted to design one of my own. This hat was made with mostly Knit Picks Yarns and Vanna's Glamour, to add a little sparkle and make it girly. The checkered portion, 'feathers', were made using the stranded knitting technique, alternating the colors in a 2 x 2 ribbed pattern. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Yarn Art Cafe: March 2012

Sunday, March 25, 2012. Embroidering Hand Knitted and Crocheted Projects. When I make gifts for people I like to personalize them as much as possible. One easy way to personalize a knit or crochet project is with embroidery. My two favorite embroidery techniques are Duplicate Stitch and using Waste Canvas. The simplest way to embroider Stockinette Stitch is with duplicate stitch. I used duplicate stitch to embroider the word "Anvil" on this hat. There are many videos on You Tube. 2 Cut a piece of canvas ...

Sunday, July 29, 2012. Bunny Hat and Piano, life is good! I just had to share this picture! So, I come around the corner and there is my youngest daughter, Simone, playing the piano in her jammies and her bunny hat, that I made for her last winter! It made me laugh, so I had to share this! I am a big fan of Bob's Burgers and it reminded me of the little girl on there that is always wearing bunny ears :P. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

The Yarn Art Cafe: 'Little Buddy' Hat
http://theyarnartcafe.blogspot.com/2012/10/little-buddy-hat.html
Thursday, October 25, 2012. Fall is my favorite time of year! Fall is also the busiest time of year for my family, which means less time for yarn, Facebook, and blogging. I did, however, manage to get this little project done, Yayyy! I made this little hat for a dog, appropriately named Gilligan. I can't wait to get some pictures of the hat on him to share! He is the cutest little dog, truly the best 'little buddy' ever! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Knitting to Stay Sane.

The Yarn Art Cafe: October 2013
http://theyarnartcafe.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 20, 2013. My family is often difficult to wake up in the morning, so a few weeks ago I woke up early and made these to wake them up with. I used some old 3D glasses that we had and some yarn scraps. Everyone woke up laughing, it was a great morning. The nose was crocheted and the mustache and booger were knitted.

Saturday, July 28, 2012. Here's what I have been Knitting and Crocheting lately! Over the last few weeks I have been busy preparing class samples and making a display to promote my classes. A few of the things on my display were things I already had, such as the children's hats and the Sashay scarves. I was in Michaels yesterday promoting my classes and I brought Mini-Me to work with me! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Knitting to Stay Sane.

The Yarn Art Cafe: Not your Granny's Squares :)
http://theyarnartcafe.blogspot.com/2012/07/not-your-grannys-squares.html
Tuesday, July 31, 2012. Not your Granny's Squares :). What have I been making? I am making these squares using Vanna's Choice yarn. I plan to sew them together to make a scarf, which will be a sample for my class. I chose the colors that I did, so that I could also use my scarf as an accessory to go with this skirt :) I think I might join the squares using rows of single crochet and black yarn, in order to match the skirt colors.
