Sooooo Many Projects!

So with the end of the semester and wedding planning I've been working on projects here and there and I haven't updated this in a while. So he's an update on ALL the things I've been working one. Hopefully I'll be opening an Etsy shop in the new year so keep an eye out for that!

This is a scarf I finally finished. It was made with a criss cross pattern that I've learned it came out awesome. It will be up on my Etsy shop when it's up.

This is another MochiMochi by Anna Hrachovec. It's a cute little Christmas tree.

I got these two patterns from mochimochiland.com. I loved the little bundled bear! Hopefully it'll bring snow here for Christmas!

 This is a t-shirt rug. I went through my closet and got rid of all the t-shirts I don't wear. I was just going to give them away but then I found this tutorial http://www.abeautifulmess.com/2012/07/make-your-own-braided-rug.html and I thought it would look great in me and Mikie's new home! It's almost done I've braided everything. I just need to glue it all down and I'll have an awesome rug!


I got this awesome kit from knitpicks.com (http://www.knitpicks.com/kits/Altiplano_Satchel_Kit__D41024.html) I've never done color work before and it was a learning experience. I have most of the bag done and I'm working on the strap now.

I'm working on so many projects and been very busy planning the wedding. I'm going to work on my bouquet for the wedding this week. I might post about that later. Hope everyone is have a great Christmas Season!

Holiday Craziness

The final weeks of the semester are finally here! I'm very excited because with out school I will be able to relax and work on wedding stuff and maybe knit somethings! I did take a much needed break on Friday and created this little guy:
He doesn't have a name but he's really cute and I was very proud because I made the pattern all by myself. Hopefully in the near future I'll be starting and Etsy shop and can sell some of my awesome creations. It's in the makings. I'll keep you guys updated. 
Happy Thanksgiving!!

Ladybug Love!

I am a member of the sorority Alpha Sigma Alpha and our unofficial mascot it the lady bug! So, today I really needed a break from school so I made up a pattern for this little lady. She is super cute and tiny. I was very proud that I made up a whole pattern all by myself! Hopefully she'll bring me some luck with my upcoming tests!

Fall Time!

Fall is quickly approaching in Chicago which means Halloween is coming! Because of this my Aunt requested some little cute Halloween toys. So I made a ghost and a friend for him. I got this pattern out of the Teeny-tiny Mochi Mochi book. The pumpkin pattern I found on ravelry and I modified it to make him smaller to his ghost friend's size. They are excited for fall and to scare people on Halloween!

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!

Dinosaur! 

Reindeer (3 months till Christmas!)
