Finito

Progress on my sweater

Hey hey, one sleeve is done! 1 to go. And then I will stop knitting for a while. I hate my pink metal knitting needles. They "click" everytime I knit - I feel like an old grand-ma. Plus they are metal, really cold to touch in winter. :(

Cable sweater!

I am back knitting. This is what I am currently working on. I love the sweater so much I spend all my free time knitting it. I am about 30% done, maybe I can finish it before new years? Then i have at least 3 months of wearing it. And no, I did not take this picture on a cow - this is the cowhide we brought back from Argentina! :D

crochet-ing again - Baby Booties

Ok. So I saw these really, really cool cowboy booties. Problem - they are not knitted. No, they are crochet. I haven't done anything in crochet since uhm... I tried to crochet a Bikini (which by the way turned out aweful). So.. I took out my orange Book from School and got started to re-learn HDC and SC (halg double crochet and slip stiches) :D
And here it is. Originally I wanted to make them for Skylar baby who lives in Texas. But I got so many requests, I have made 4 pairs so far!
And in case you want to make them too, instructions are from here:
