Paintbox Hat

This has become my newest favorite hat.  I love the yarn.  I love the simple shape.  I love how there's hardly any effort needed to create this colorful hat.  And I didn't realize until I started wearing it that it coordinated with so many of the clothes and jackets that I already have in my wardrobe.  There are so many other gorgeous colorways offered in this yarn to please almost all tastes.

Needles: US #7 set of 4 double points

Paintbox hat 4.jpgThe crown is worked first and with 2 needles (not in the round).  After the deceptively easy top triangles are finished, stitches are picked up and joined to be worked in the round.

Paintbox hat 3.jpgFinished size: 19 inches in circumference (if a larger or smaller hat is desired, choose a thinner or chunkier yarn and use the appropriate sized needles suggested on the yarn label).

Alter Ego felted bag

I have a dream of what I'd like to look like.  I'd like to be thinner and have no stretch marks or blemishes.  I'd also like to be able to wear a bikini again (actually, I don't know if I ever have, to be honest).  Anyway, it's just a dream.  And it won't be coming true.  So I created my Alter Ego.  At least, a partial version of it.  And you can too.  Customize this bag any way you can imagine.  Add a tattoo, a piercing, some tassels, an outy belly button or go naked.  The possibilities are endless.
