Gold Scarf, Mood Afghan and Quilted Tote Bags

Yesterday I finished knitting the sparkly gold scarf. I still have to fix the fringe on it.

And I am also caught up with my 365 day mood afghan. I need to organize all the pieces before they get lost.

The new kitten Houdini is making it harder to craft. He keeps jumping up on my lap or flopping over on the table wanting his tummy scratched. For a feral cat he sure is a cuddly guy.

Did I ever mention the Fat Quarters tote bags I'm making? I don't think I have. I have to turn in the book telling how to make them. Darn it all. When will I learn NOT to make projects from library books. Then I either have to end up buying the book, requesting it again so I can check it out another time, or snapping a photo with my digital camera hoping I can find the directions on my hard drive later.

New Girl's Skirt Project

Right now I'm knitting a gauge square in purple yarn for a girl's skirt design. It is going to be striped with some pretty wild colors.

On Wed. I started crocheting a monkey just about at the end of the knitting gathering at Fanciwerks. I haven't had time to work on it since but I hope to get to it today.

And I'll keep working on my mood afghan. Here is a photo of that:

Mid October Update

Those ideas just keep coming.

Yesterday I started my knitted fox hood in coffee brown, burnt pumpkin and cream. I decided to edge it with the dark color first so the orange will stand out more.

Holding the yarn for the fox hood.

The first 3 rows of the fox hood are done.

The top and bottom layers of the boho purse are ready to be joined.

 Above is the Gypsy Boho Style Bag. I've made a lot of progress on it. I love the colors. Things are really coming together.

I find it helpful to stick the buttons onto tape to keep them from blowing away while working on them in the yard.

Fiddling around with crocheting buttons. Would you pay $2 a piece for them on Etsy?

Making a hexagon a day for my MOOD AFGHAN.

Today is day 4 of my mood afghan. What colors shall I choose today? I'm in a hungry mood. Maybe yellow, white and brown for bacon and eggs. Haha.
