Workin' At It

Guess what I got in the mail this week? Yes! Knitting looms. Thanks to Lisa, I had to try these. I took a knitting class a while back, but I haven't had much time to devote to mastering the needles. So, when I saw Lisa's posts on her looms I thought to myself, "hey, self, that looks like fun".

So, the other night I got out some thick brown yarn (yeah, I've got lots of brown yarn, so what!) and gave the tiniest loom a try.


Here's what I made, and it didn't even take me that long. It's a little boring in this color, but what newborn baby doesn't need a wooly hat?


I can always add to it and jazz it up a bit. What do you think?


I've also finally figured out a way to label my monkeys. I'm approaching the 600 mark and they're still not branded! Terrible. I'm gonna give these little Shrinky Dink buttons a try. I think they look pretty nice and they don't take long to sew on or make.

I've got loads of other little projects going on right now, these are just a few. I've got a bigger project in the works starting tomorrow. Nick and I are flying up to Seattle to begin the house hunting process. Hooray!!!! We might get to move soon. That's on of my goals coming close to completion. :) Have a great weekend, and wish us luck!
