New things going on over at my Etsy store. Just listed several Boo Boo bags, some addorable crochet hats and baby booties. More new items are coming soon.

Birthday gift for my daughter

As you can tell I’m not a very good blogger but I will try to do better.
My little pumpkin just had her birthday and I wanted to make her something
from mom. She loves Dora the Explorer so I decided to make Dora’s backpack complete with map, a star pocket and a star. I think it came out
cute and she loved it. I’m pretty proud that I did it with out a pattern.

Artfire

I signed up to sell on Artfire as well as Etsy. I have added new items to my Artfire store that I thought turned out great. I love the little piggy potholder. I learned how to make the korker bows for my daughter but had no where to put them so they would not get smashed. I have had an idea in my head for a while to make a crochet hair bow holder. I think it turned out cute! Take a look at my shop. http://www.artfire.com/users/throughtherainbow

Finished my first knitting project

I finally finished my first knitting project. It’s just a simple
Scarf for my little one. It is made of soft yarn in a mix of pink
purple and black. The colors are hard to see in the picture but she
love’s it.

Learning something new

I finally learned how to knit. I have wanted to learn but have never had time. Last week I ended up out of town because my transmission went out. I had a lot of time on my hands so I bought a book some needles and yarn and sat down and learned the basic knit stitch and purl stitch as well as how to cast on and cast off. It is harder than crocheting. I am making a scarf for my little one to use next year and than I will try a new project.

I have not been very faithful to blogging lately. I've been busy with doing family portraits. Everyone want's there pictures yesterday. I have also been working on my crocheting and have found I am really enjoying it. I've learned how to read a pattern after all these years. I have only been able to make blankets since I learned years ago. Lately I have made and elephant, bear, dog and several other items. I will start posting some new item's soon.

Time to relax

I have decided to start crocheting again. I really enjoy it. It is relaxing and calming. I have been getting patterns together and have started a few projects. I have a box full of yarn and a ton of needle and several books. Next week I am in the middle of nowhere will no internet and nothing but time and my 2 year old. I’m hoping to be able to remember what I’m doing once I get the ball rolling.
