my first ruffles!

it's always exciting to try something new and have it turn out right. :) this is beautiful indalee wearing shorts i made her - i wanted to try ruffles and my friend kate (indalee's mama) said it'd be ok but nothing super girly. i followed the instructions here and they turned out super cute with just the perfect amount of girliness. ;) hehe, curran has a pair of shorts in this same yarn, i love it! it's lindon merino from three irish girls. i'll have to try to get a pic of them together...

local mamas co-op at the earth day festival!

our booth! this was a first for all of us and our setup wasn't great but we had a blast and can't wait for the next one!

pixie hats - a couple sold, the rest i'm working on listing on etsy...

peace shirts - they all sold, yay!

not a very good pic but these are cute zebra tails for kiddies to pin on their pants - i thought they'd be a hit, but maybe i priced them too high? ($5 wdyt?)

overall - it was a successful day and i'm so glad my crafty mama friends wanted to do this with me!

it's been a while... again!

i've been crafting little things here and there but i haven't been very good about taking pics, oopsy! i made my good friend claire a pair of shorties for her baby zion but i don't have a pic yet, will need to do that. i have a few pixie hats knit up that i'm going to try and sell at the earth day festival coming up along with other little things... when i get it all together, i'll snap a pic and post it. :) for now, this is the best i can do - first, a rasta/punk hat i made for myself - i combined 2 patterns for this and added a little length on the top and did the decreases my own way. aaron's hat is the waffle hat pattern i used and then i used the brim instructions from the newsboy hat in stitch n bitch nation - i love how it turned out! going to try a kid's version next...

then i made this patchwork fishy outfit for the fluff factory charity auctions...i love how it turned out and will definitely make curran a set! i did not make the awesome cloth diaper, that's from luxe baby diapers.

aspen's iris pants

these pants are for sweet little aspen, she's just 10 days older than curran! i traded with her mom geneva - she made me a gorgeous handwoven scarf, i will try to get a picture of it today... the yarn is from zen string in their iris colorway.
