Craft-a-whatever day 6

, originally uploaded by alicen.

Last night's project was filling out Christmas cards. It will be this night's as well, most likely. But I'll try to come up with a different picture.

And yes, I didn't make my own. I'm lazy.

I am totally putting this up on the correct day! I made these for Tom a couple of weeks ago. A matching hat is planned.

I'm making this scarf yet again. Almost done!

This is a vest I designed for Tom a while ago. I've got it partway made and hanging in our bedroom.

Craft-a-day December Day 2

Day 2 is boxers. When Tom gets sucked into going to fabric stores with me, he sometimes finds fabric he likes. Which is eventually turned into underwear. I was home sick today so I finally finished these.

Craft-a-day December Day 1

I know lots of people who are trying to draw something every day of December. Since I'm trying to make Christmas gifts, I'd rather devote the energy to making things instead. So I'll try to post something I'm making every day until I leave for the holidays. Of course, I'm starting off a day late.

This is for December 1. It's a hat I made for my aunt as a Christmas present. Apologies for the terrible photo - I mailed the hat back from Boston after Thanksgiving, so I can't take another at the moment.

Wristwarmers

My old purple wristwarmers have started to fray, and I decided it was just as much work to pick them out an re-knit them as to make new ones. And I was in Arizona with family and forgot to bring any kind of project to keep me out of trouble. Fortunately they have yarn stores there.

These are electric pink and match my hair. They're finished now and I've been wearing them, but this is the picture I got around to uploading. No pattern, just made it up. They have separate thumbs but no fingers, and are ribbed all over.

I made them as small as they could possibly be and still fit me. Unlike the last pair, Tom can't steal these.
