White Pumpkin
I added a new pumpkin to the bunch. I like the white but definitely like the orange ones better. Pattern found on Ravelry.
Lucy's Sweater
Little Bit whipped out a sweater for Lucy. She didn't use a pattern, just went for it. It came out great and fits well. It's crocheted with Red Heart Kids line.

Fall Treasures
This is the complete fall treasures gift for my mom. Basket weave towel, indian corn, and mini pumpkins. The towel and pumpkins were knit, the indian corn crocheted. All the patterns were found through Ravelry. They were all such quick easy patterns I plan on making more for our house.

Little Bit's Dress
Little Bit has decided to make her first dress. She picked out the fabric on her own, stating that it looked fallish. This past week she cut out all the fabric and linings. She has started work on the bodice with some guidance from mom. Good job Little Bit, can't wait to see the end result.
Pumpkin Time
Now that the towel is finished, it's time for mini pumpkins. These will make a cute centerpiece on a table. The pattern was found on Ravelry and fittingly the yarn color name is pumpkin.
Autumn Towel
I finished the Autumn Towel. It came out really cute and definitely a pattern I will use again, great results without being complicated. The color looks very pinkish here, but it is actually paprika and very orangey in person.

Lucy's New Dresses
Little Bit finished up her dolly dresses. She sewed the dresses all by herself with me sitting next to her directing the process. Way to go! They came out super cute. I love the fabric choices. Lucy is a very loved little doll.

Handicrafts Once Again!
It has been too long since Little Bit or I have been sewing or knitting. Today we are doing both. She is sewing new clothes for her doll Lucy. I am sitting next to her assisting and knitting. I haven't had needles in my hand for a month or two. It feels really good. I am finishing up a little doll sweater I am making Lucy. As always I am loving my Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece.

Wine Charm
This gorgeous wine charm was given to me by a very special friend. She made it herself. The words "Love Life, Live Life" are very meaningful to us both. Life is much too short not to live it and love it. Thank you for the beautiful crafty love gift.

Mini Pouch
Here is a little mini felted pouch I made out of the leftover scraps from the larger pouches I made. This one will hold a deck of cards. Also made with the Lanoloft yarns. I think this one is my favorite, I really like the striping.

Purple Pouch
No matter how many times I retake this photo it is not capturing the color right. It is a very deep purple and very pretty. Another felted pouch for art supplies. Love the deep purple color. Wish you could see it too. It's also a Lanoloft yarn.
Orange Pouch
My newest felted pouch. For our art supplies. I think this one is going to the little boy. Made with Lanoloft yarn by Brown Sheep. Yarn color is called Confections!

Short Socks
Here they are! My first pair of socks completed! They are ankle sized socks being that it's summer and I want to wear them. They fit great and are super comfy. I can see why folks love hand knit socks.

Hooked on Socks!
Well it's official. I'm hooked on socks. I pulled out another ball of sock yarn I had because I wanted to try a different sized needle. The grey pair of socks I'm making on size 1 needles, but they seemed a bit big to me. This pink pair I've started on 0's and they feel much better already. I will be sticking with 0's from now on.
