Wonky? What's this "wonky" Renstar? Asymmetry is really popular right now

Thank you far the nice comments on the cemetery.

Melerific, great scary green cookies, but I like the haunted house embroidery best. It's beautiful.

Alwaysinmyroom, These socks look so comfy, I can imagine how comforting they are in a cold weather.

Bookstorebabe, lovely mirror and box. I like the colors and the 3D aspect of it.

KK, the baby blanket is very delicate and truly lovely, especially with the border, which adds a lot of charm.

Renstar, the tunic and leg warmers go well together, you look good in them.

My last project was carving a pumpkin. It is so warm here, they only last a couple of days. Mine didn't last that long, it was in pieces on the floor the next morning. It's a bit like a sandcastle or cooking, lots of efforts and the result quickly disappears. I carved a carrousel.

That is a damn fine pumpkin. And a ton of other great projects, I love them.

And thank you guys, stitching that top bit was a nightmare!!!

You guys totally inspire me along, I am in awe of the 'awesomeness' of everyone's projects here.

So glad I joined this thread.

ha I agree--a bit wonky seems to suit you just fine!  It looks lovely...what nice projects for yourself...legwarmers...been on my list forever...I like them!

I have mostly been knitting socks...these are for my friend batgirl.



oh man--I missed the pumpkin!!  I just love that it is such a different design...I spent all yesterday looking at all of the costumes and carved pumpkins that so many of our members posted...wow...such a creative bunch...my Mom was surprised that so many people made their own costumes in this day and age of "store bought everything"!

A few little skulls that Lana and I painted for Dias de los Muertos!

[SilverMoon]

I keep forgetting to post again 

A meerkat of my own (unfortunately not taken notes of) design


An Orko, from He-Man


A hat, in a pattern I'm going to call Stained Glass - this is a cloche, but I'm going to make other styles for sale. This one was for a charity trivia night.

(It's just the Lattice Hat off Ravelry, with black post stitches, and rainbow under)

A simple ribbed-ish beanie for a male friend's birthday.


Phew. Good to be caught up.

Oh, and I just started another full length Doctor Who scarf - this one I hope to have done by the end of the month!

Good to see your yarn goodies, Silvermoon!  I love that stained glass hat!  Also, a meerkat!!  It is so cute...your own pattern? Good job!

[stillatthetop]

Love, love, loving the stained glass hat. Your other items are neat, too. But I just love the rainbow colors and patterns of that hat. Looks like it must have been fun to make!

Dias de los Muertos skulls are cool, too! I love those. Daughter is part Mexican, and we celebrate this Holiday, as well as many others. Nice job painting! I love rainbow colors...can you tell?

Ooh, got so excited posting the skulls that I forgot to ooh and aah about the great goodies--love the carousel pumpkin, socks!  who doesn't love socks?!, and the lil' dud from He Man,esp.

Thanks Stillatthetop.  My mom is from Panama and I'm trying to do as much as I can to teach Lana about everything Latino.    I wish my mom had taught me Spanish.  She taught Lana a little as a baby and now she's taking it at school and has a tutor so hopefully one day she will be fluent.

Wow, I've been gone awhile.  And, unfortunately, I have a TON to post... sorry.  But the first 16 projects are kind of one theme, and are posted elsewhere... so one picture and then thumbnails!
