Tic-Tac-Toe for a Princess


I created the pattern for this one. 100% cotton yarn. I'll crochet some circles for playing pieces, though she loves this purse just the way it is. I made the handle long so she can wear it like a messenger bag.

Crochet ornaments


I gifted these to a Pagan friend for her solstice tree.

My holiday swap package!


Yarn! I got yarn :D The little gingerbread house ornament, and the fabric it's laying on. She said she did that to the fabric! It started out as a piece of black fabric, she put a gel or something on it, then a soak, and that's what it turned into. I want to learn more about that technique.

Rasta tam



Pictures are lousy, but you get the idea ;) It's getting packaged up or I'd attempt better pics. This was my first crochet for pay project. I added a drawstring afterwards, as per her request. It's made in 100% merino wool so a drawstring is best, merino doesn't hold it's shape as well when it gets stretched regularly. Paton's "chestnut".

A Christmas ornament


This is for an ornament swap. I'm including the extra bit of yarn and plastic needle so the recipient can hand sew their own picture or kids drawing into the circle.
