A handful of FOs from the past couple months

[how_german]

It's been so long since I've actually posted any of my FOs on craftster. I guess I just fell into a funk for a while. Anyway, here a couple things I've crocheted in the past couple months. They're all pretty simple but they're my own designs (mostly made up as I was making them).


Itty bitty olive! I was practicing shaping in crochet (which I'm still relatively new to...I'm a knitter at heart!  )


I hadn't quite perfected changing colors yet but I wanted to show you his little pimento.


Mystery poultry! Made on a whim one night, mostly just to see if I could do it.


This is a change purse I made for my partner in the One Tiny Thing swap. It's simple, but I thought it turned out pretty elegant.




I even lined it! I'm pretty proud of this considering how terrible I usually am at lining things.


I liked it so much that I made a blue version for myself! The flower reminds me of a buttercup. 




Lining! Because it just buttons closed it's not really so great for holding change but it is the perfect size for my little square ipod nano.

Thanks for looking!

Too cute!!  I knit too, but it's so relieving to be able to switch hit, depending on my mood.  And the shaping of your olive looks perfect.

Love that little olive!
And the change purse is really nice. Could use something like that.

That olive is super cute and I don't like olives. I also love the chicken or whatever fowl it is, was it difficult?

Those are all just adorable! I feel inspired to make little food now.

The poultry is so clever! I'd totally make a centerpiece out of it for thanksgiving lol
