WIP Weekend Edition

I’ve got LOTS of WIP’s right now, most of them are Christmas related, so I can’t blog about them for a few months, but I decided to whip up this slouchy hat this weekend. I am loving it so far.

Any special projects you’re working on?

Pink Fish

I am cranking out a lot of fish these days.

I like this lil’ gal.

I may need to make another one to replace her. I really like this one and I am kind of sad that she is for someone else’s Christmas present.

Sea Creatures.

Menagerie of sea creatures.


So I totally could have set them up all cute and actually made it look like I tried to take a good picture, but instead you get to see them lying on a dishtowel on my kitchen floor, because that room gets the best (only) light. No other rooms (sans bathroom) have overhead lighting (annoying) and so we only have a few lamps casting dim shadows around the other rooms, and since I get home after dark, ta-da. A crappy photo for your enjoyment!

In other news, I will definitely be taking requests for those Christmas presents you KNOW you want for your loved ones. I mean requests of a knit/crochet kind. If you’ve got a specific idea, email me, lemme know, we can work something out. (Regular sized animals/fish/sea creatures/lamb/elephant/turtle/whatevs! I am selling for $10, smaller ones for $7, plus $2 for shipping, if you’re out of the area, or you can just get them from me next time I am in town, if you are a Tacomaite)

Ok. Off to knit a whale.

More fish in the sea

I made a few more fish.

This guys is really tiny. He’s a little mud fish.

And another regular sized one.

His top fin is kind of big and floppy.

He’s a Waldo fish, I guess.

And just for comparison, so you can see how tiny the mudfish is.


More iPod Cases

They’re just so fun I can’t stop making them. They take so little time to complete that it’s almost ridiculous. (I cranked out 2 tonight while watching Project Runway) and they’re so fun. I can’t believe I’m actually making money on something I’m knitting!

I swear I am done showing them to you… maybe. But keep the orders coming, people, because I am having a great time making these!

iPod Cozies

This may be (maybe not?) my last post about iPod cozies. I just wanted to let you all know that I am going to be taking orders for them, if anyone is interested! If you have a specific color in mind, (or two, or three!) let me know and I will do my best to incorporate whatever color you’d like! And if you do want one, just let me know and then email me your address and I will get to work and send it to you once completed.

I know I’ve put up several pictures already, but here are a few for reference.

If you are local, the cost is $5, if you are out of the area I will make it and mail it to you for $6.

Email me at lexikaye (@) gmail.com for any questions or to place an order!

Starfish

I made a starfish!

I wasn’t thrilled with him, but I guess that’s what happens when you don’t have a pattern. Things get… weird.

He’s got a bit of a smirky face, which I wasn’t really going for, but I got 1/2 way done embroidering the smile on, and just decided to leave it!

Giveaway!

That’s right, folks, it’s time for another giveaway. And wouldn’t you know it, I’m doing another kid sweater! This one, however is gender neutral! I am totally in love with this sweater, it’s pretty darn cute, if I may say so!

If it wins and it’s going to a little girl, I might even be inclined to knit up a little rosette or something to go on it, so it might seem a little more feminine.

The sweater is approximately 18m-24m size, although it’s a stretchy knit, so it is kind of hard to tell. And, it’s machine washable! That’s always a plus with kids clothes, I hear.

1. Leaving a comment, telling me how much you want this!!
