Pottery Painting

Last spring I won a gift certificate for a Made by You at the Funzine film club, so I used it to paint a beautiful teapot. I brought long my friend Meredith and she painted mug. I really like how the colours turned out. Here are the 'before' pictures:

Lastly, I have a photo of the teapot once it was completed and fired:

William and the baby socks

While knitting this summer I made 5 pairs of blue baby socks. Below is a picture of baby Willam wearing a pair and his mom holding up another. I am in the picture just for fun.

Purple and White Skiing Hat

After making all of the baby clothing this last month I decided to make something a little larger. This hat is what I came up with. It is my own design made out of hand spun yarn I found in my stash. I think it turned out well with the purple and white yarn.

Scarves for the needy

Here is a picture of two scarves which I am planning on giving away this Christmas . I was going to take them to church today to give away, but there was too much snow to go. They are both a simple garter stitch pattern.
