i hadn't been knitting or crocheting much because all i can think about nowadays, craft-wise, is my sewing machine. i hate cutting, though. hate it!
anyway, i knit my first toy! i used ysolda's stuffies pattern, some leftover wool-ease chunky, and 5mm needles to get him. then, yesterday, i decided to finally make a sock monkey! i recently found a pair of socks in my couch, so i used them.
the monkey slept in bed with us, last night. well, actually, he fell asleep in nate's arms and i carefully pried him away, once the bub was asleep and set him on a chair nearby. when J got a wake-up call from his boss, this morning, Nathan awoke, asking "where my monkey go?" amazing memory, no?!
he toted him around all morning and actually just ran away from nursing to find him!! unbelievable.
I need to find some cute socks to make one for cousin's daughter, whose birthday party is this weekend! i think it'd be a cute gift. she's turning 5, though. i'm soooo not good with older kids. her daddy said no toys, but BOO to that! heh
check out my new wallet, made from an old cassette tape, some paint, a zipper, felt, and glue (blech).
