Historical Dress



I made this dress for an overnight field trip I'm going on with my son. The camp recreates the 1850's. I sewed the dress apron and bonnet and crocheted lace edgings for the dress.

Shamrock Doily






From Crochet World and made with Royale Classic Crocht Thread in Myrtle Green. The green is really too bright, I mean it is very St. Patrick's-y but doesn't go with my decor. Go figure, it was all I could find when I started the project, now I can find lots of different greens.

Parrot


J needed a parrot to play pirates with. I improvised this one in crochet. I put pipe cleaners in the feet and legs to add more stability and it can actually stand.

Calculus MacBook Bag




I graphed out a couple of Alfred's favorite equations and knitted him a lap top cozy. I lined it with polar fleece and added a zipper. I hope he likes it! <3
Update: It fits perfectly! Yay!

Green Scarf


I crocheted it with Misti alpaca/wool/silk sock yarn. Though soft, it was a little itchy so I tried hair conditioner. It really does work. :)
