Puppy Slippers
This is another free pattern I got from lionbrand.com I did alter the type of yarn I used. They advised to use Lion Brand Tiffany style & I used Cascade 220 & Fun Fur. I am hoping to get a few pairs of these made for the craft fair this Nov as well. The patter includes 3 sizes up to 1 year, I think.
This next project is one of those size 3 Double Pointed Needle projects that hurt my fingers but my son LOVED it. This pattern I got from book called: "itty-bitty toys" by Susan B. Anderson. The book is full of wonderful knitted toys, stuffed animals, dolls & even reversibles (where it is one animal one way but you filp it inside out & it is another animal.) This is also the book where I am getting my stuffed snake pattern that I am making the boys for Christmas.
I made the "wrap-me-up puppies" minus the blanket the pattern makes.
This is a Crayon Caddy yet another free pattern from lionbrand.com. This is something else I am hoping on selling at the craft fair.

This is called the 6 hour Afghan, free pattern at lionbrand.com. I already had this yarn on hand & had it for years but didn't want to make the original blanket I purchased if for so I did a search on lionbrand.com for patterns w/ their Homespun yarn & found this it uses size 50 needles so it is a fast knit but you are knitting w/ 4 yarns at once. I also didn't have as much as the pattern called for so this is more a Lapghan it is missing about 6 inches from the length according to the pattern but it is nice & warm & perfect for using while reading on a colder night.
Last but not least is a pattern I created. I when I found out I was pregnant I wanted to make baby blocks & found a cute pattern w/ stars & these were to be stuffed. well after I had begun knitting them I then found another pattern for nesting blocks but they were just garter stitch (knit each row) so I decided to combine the two patterns so I could have the cute blocks w/ the stars on them but make them stacking & nesting. Because it is a combination of two patterns I will be able to sell the pattern in my etsy store if & when I get it going. My first goal is still the craft fair.
Well that is all the pics of past projects I have for now. Next time I think I am going to go over the massive list of projects I have yet to come by Christmas. This way you can know what to look forward to see me make. I am planing on doing a post for each project like I did for the Aromatic Eye Pillows. Until next time. :-)
