Sharing Happiness

I live in a sorority house and one day I saw that our dining room was full of stressed out girls who needed some sunshine. So, I brought down my collection of little creatures. Well...everyone loved them! I now have a long list of orders to be made. All the proceeds are going towards WorldServe Project (www.worldserveproject.org) and help pay for a trip to build a home for a family. Thanks to my sorority sisters for supporting me!

Reindeer (3 months till Christmas!)

Tiny break from school

I took a little break from homework this week and made some little friends. A computer because I'm on one all day from school and this one is way cuter. A corn because I like sweet corn and he's also cute. Still really don't have time for much crafty or knitting but I do what I can. Most of my free time now will consist of wedding planning. Exciting...yes!

School maddness

Well I'm back at school. It is my fifth and final year of architecture school! Because of school my crafting and blogging time has been cut significantly. I'm so sorry. But this weekend my fiancé and I will be starting a new blog about our tiny home! I'll share once it's up an running. The first couple weeks are always crazy. But I have these little mochi's to help me through it!

Socks of Istanbul

One of my great friends, Lauren, studied abroad last semester. While abroad she got me a present from Istanbul. They are these amazing sock/boot things. They are just amazing. They are super comfy and the colors are just incredible. I've wanted to learn how to do color work in knitting for a while. This might be a sign that I should learn. ;-) it's not cold now but I'm still wearing them. I can't wait for winter when I can wear them all the time!

Dinner Last Night

Last night we made the delicious dinner of Mac n Cheese Grilled Cheese! Basically, you make a grilled cheese sandwich but instead of just cheese you add Mac n Cheese. We used Velveeta brand. It was super good!

MochiMochi Friday!

I still love MochiMochi's. Sadly, I have been very busy and not able to make some lately. So, to get my Mochi fix, I'm going to post some pictures about ones that I made a couple weeks ago.

A gnome!!

This a little blue monkey with a banana. 

Little cupcake. Colors picked by my sister Kristie

I recently ordered and received a bunch of yarn from www.knitpicks.com. I got a whole bunch of colors so I can make more little mochi's. Now that I have a ton of colors I can get to knitting more cute mochi's

Hat for a friend

I love hats almost as much as I love scarves. My friend Gwen asked me to make a hat for her. We made a deal if she bought the yarn and found a pattern I would make her a hat and that's just what we did. The pattern I used can be found HERE. It was a pretty simple hat if you've had experience knitting with double pointed needles. Here are pictures of the final product taken and modeled by the lovely Gwen Parker.

It was a very fun project and is going to keep Gwen's head nice and warm in the winter.
