Hedgehogs

How many UFP's (unfinished projects ) do you have going? I started the fiber trends Felted hedgehog over the summer. I got the front body done but never seemed to pick it back up. So once again while I was snowed in I finished the felted hedgehog. I just love him. He still needs a face but he is just so cute. I have about 3 more to make. A few friends have seen him and they all just have to have one so I guess I will get busy and assembly line them and make a few birthday presents. Well here is a pic of the felted hedgehog with no face. I will have to take a picture of the un- felted one next time. He turned out to be about 8" . Now if I can just pry him away from my daughter.

Felted Knitted Cable needle Case

Well I have been a little off kilter lately. Too much snow and too much time on my hands. Also one busy 6 year old under my feet due to snow days. I decided I would raid my stash for a project I have wanted to do for awhile. I can finally organize my bamboo needles. Pattern can be found here: http://www.berroco.com/exclusives/kable/kable.html.

Here are my finished pictures. I used some Patton's Classic wool in rosewood and some leftover mauve from knit picks for the cables inside. This was a pretty easy and quick project.

Ponchos in the round

Well I have busted my butt for the last three days to finish this poncho for my daughters friend's birthday party. I had made Katie the purple fun fur trimmed one last year. She did not like it, she said it was too fuzzy but now she is crazy about it. SO I made her friend a pink one in the round.

Around and around and around I went until presto it was big enough. I really like this poncho better than the two rectangle one . I will let Katie pick some new yarn and make her one like this as well but I need to rest my hands. Those size 11.00 circular needles and two boucle yarns stitched together were really tough on my hands so I will rest them a bit.
