The Snowdrift Collection

Still busy crocheting.  I'm adding a few things to the shop.  Well, so far, i've only listed a couple of things.  Taking and editing pics take forever!  But, here it is, the Snowdrift Collection:

All Snowdrift cowls come in 30 beautiful colors and are all going to be Ready to Ship items.  I handmade each one in my new and unique pattern using soft and thick wool blend yarn.

Oh yeah, did i mention that I love custom orders? :)

Flowers & Stripes

I've been making baby hats this past week to sell at my etsy shop.  I love stripes!  I made a few hats with stripes of different widths.  The navy blue and white one below is double knit.  I will be making more of those with different color combinations for baby/toddler boys and the ones with the thinner stripes will be for the girlies, of course, embellished with a big, bright and colorful flower.

My favorite color combo:  navy blue and white and bright pink :)

I will also be selling fitted baby hats in solid color with a floral/bow embellishment.

New Shop Items

I added a few more items to my etsy shop:  Headband/ear-warmer embellished with a big crocheted flower ($21.50 USD) and ones with a big heart accent ($21USD).  I also lowered my prices on my Big Bow Headband/Ear-warmers from $24USD to $22USD.  All my items are customizable :)

A Chunky Slightly Slouchy Newsboy Hat for Me!

I guess the post title says it all...  Made this hat with Lion Brand Hometown USA yarn in Dallas Gray and a 9mm crochet hook.

Newsboy hats

Whipped up a couple of newsboy hats for Kiersten.  Hats now available on my etsy shop, available plain or accented with detachable bow or flower.

...another li'l girl's dress

I had extra fabric from another dress I made, so I just added a skirt to a store-bought tank - a fast and easy project.  I will be adding a blue sash/ribbon around the waist.  I kinda want the aqua blue on the fabric to pop out.

from this....

... to this.

li'l girl's dress

I bought this big floral-patterned fabric from fabric.com.  I used a simple dress pattern from Butterick (See&Sew B5443).  No buttons, no zipper, which is okay since the fabric has some stretch to it.  I then added ruffles to "girlify" it some more.

Here's my daughter Kiersten modelling the dress:

...pretending to take a picture of me using my camera lens cover :)

I bought one yard of this fabric and I only used about 2/3 of it.  I'm using the leftover for another dress.  I'm adding a ruffled skirt to a store-bought tank top.
