Rosebud Hats

My cousin asked me to make two hats for her friend who is expecting a new baby girl in November and already has a 1 year old girl.  Both hats were knit using a 100% Pima Cotton yarn.  The rosebuds are made up of a variety of bright and soft colored cotton yarns with the added detail of several green leaves.

The Wreath Hat in a pale cream yarn will be perfect on the new big sister!

I can't wait to see the two girls in these hats!!

Felted Bowls

Felted Bowls are awesome!!!  They are made out of 100% wool yarn and then felted in the washing machine.  I enjoy letting my imagination run wild by using different color combinations and making a variety of sizes.  Some of the bowls have a slightly rounded bottom while others have a rim along the bottom which creates a very flat bottom.  Recently I got really crafty and added a spiked edging!!

Camera Case

I love my digital camera but the black case it came with was so plain and boring.  So I decided to make a case so I can carry my camera in style!! 

The cases are made of 100% wool yarn and then felted in the washing machine.  The felting process shrinks down the case and increases the thickness, which helps to protect the camera.  Some of the cases are made with a couple different color yarns and others are made with verigated (self striping) yarn.  My favorite is the finishing touch of a fun button!!
