I mentioned earlier that since the computer had been sick and unusable, I had been busy with crochet, and I finished some Christmas gifts. So I thought I should share!
So I decided I wasn't happy with the shawl I made my aunt, and started making granny squares to put together to maker her a granny square scarf. This is a variegated purple yarn. I think my camera dislikes purple, I always have trouble taking pictures with the true purple color. Anyways I made 12 squares and I am now sewing them together to make the scarf. Yay!
I made my grandmother a little card wallet. She carries her cash and all her cards in a change purse that is ready to bust. This is a much cuter way to do it. I plan on making a bigger one to hold my camera, phone, and Ipod in purse. The fabric choice, is because my grandmother loves elephants with their trunks up (for good luck). Here it is open...
and here it is closed.
These are some Christmas trees that will be strung together to make a garland. I just need to weave in the ends, and block them so they will lay flat. I am never crazy about that part, but I can't string them together till I do it. So I better get on it!
Work has been crazy busy! Awesome, since it is a craft store. Maybe more people are making handmade gifts.
Are you making a lot of your gifts this year?
