This was initially going to be my entry into the current tiny thing challenge but the neck seems to have stretched a little beyond 2 inches. It bums me out a little but I don't want to enter it if it's above the size limit.

My wonderful feller recently picked up the banjo and I made this itty bitty banjo in honor of him. <3






I even made a mini-hard shell case to protect it.


...and of course it's lined with grey "fur" (felt...)


Secret compartment for extra fingerpicks/strings/what have you.



Hope you like it!

Today is my birthday and my mum made me a cake. It has my Boston Terrier, Bug, on it. 





Thanks for looking.

This hat turned out even better than I expected! I made it to match a zig-zag/ripple/wave/whatever stripey scarf that I finished a couple weeks ago (you can see a bit of it in the pics). It was made using the AWESOME pattern by Sophia Kessinger on ravelry. I would absolutely recommend it!





And this isn't really worth noting, but I felt we could all use a little gratuitous puppy action.
It's a little stash busting starghan I made to put in Bug's crate. She loves snuggling under blankies. 





Thanks for looking!

These are two old FO's that I never got around to posting. The first is a hat I made using the chart for Skullface from Knitty. Let me tell you, for some reason it was a bitch to knit in the round! I was so glad to be done with it.





I get a lot of wear out of this, it's probably my favorite hat.

This is the amazing technicolor dream scarf...knit with 4 balls of Koigu KPPPM. This took me FOREVER, about a year actually, because I kept putting it down. I think I may have even made it a little too long...eep. 









Thanks for looking!

Three new paintings; one done last night, the other two tonight. They're all 5"x7" so they're pretty small.



Legs.


Butt...my favorite of the 3 paintings.  


The hand is a little crappy and small but I've already committed to being done with it...so oh well.  

Thanks for looking.

I received my package from malmow today! Check out my loot:


Various little papers and some yarn scraps. That holographic paper is awesome. 


Little odds and ends, note the VERY cute little inchies she included and the little boot confetti (awesome). The little skull charm is being made into a bracelet as we speak.


And in my questionnaire I said that I'd love to receive drawings from my swap partners. Look at how cute these all are! Malmow wrote on the back that I shouldn't include a close-up but I think they're adorable!

Thanks so much!!! 

I received from Kurtzie today!






My favorite thing: a little googly eye resin pendant. 

Thanks, Kurtzie!!

Some are better than others, some of the subject matter is a little weird...

Chicken wings! There's a long running joke between some friends of mine concerning chicken wings.

Thanks for lookin'.

I want the Japanese kanji for creative ("takumi") with a cherry blossom branch behind it.  I want the kanji to be black, the branch to be brown, and the cherry blossoms (of course) to be pink.

I took a stab at the idea, not sure if this is what you were talking about or not. 



The outlines on the flowers came out a lot more prominent than I hoped, but oh well.

[Thank you, carrieme!!]

I received my awesome package from carrieme on Monday! 

She made me a very cute little jellyfish stuffie:




Here he is lounging on my monitor so you can see his dangly tentacles. Gotta love rick rack!


She even made me some very cute jellyfish inspired earrings! Look at the little (handmade) card type deal they're on! Love his little smile!


She also included a couple handmade jellyfish note cards. Very cute!

Thank you, carrieme!!
