More Knitting....

Well, I tried my fourth iteration of the pastel sock last night with no success. So, while I mull it over, I've been amusing myself by finishing the little felted bags I started a few weeks ago. I saw the pattern in February here, and knew I'd have to try them.

They work up pretty fast, so like the little bunnies, I figured, if I'm making one, I might as well make several.And remember the little embroidered thumbtacks? I told you you'd be seeing more of them. This time, in the form of button flowers to sew on the purses.

These are so fun to make. They're small -- the buttons are only 3/4- inch. Try them -- they make a quick little project!XOXO,
Anna

Oh Anna, these are adorable! I just love the colors and the button flowers. I would want to carry all four of them together...two on each arm because they look so wonderful together! xoxox Junie

Goodness, those are so cute and they are even more cute all lined up like that. The little flower button/pin thingys really make them.

They're gorgeous! And the colours you used are eye-popping :-)

I'm with Junie - they must stay together perhaps on their own little shelf. They are a picture!

I have just found your blog.

These bags are perfectly adorable. I've been knitting for a few months. I actually learned the knit and pearl stitches awhile back; but, I never learned to do anything with them.

A friend is teaching me. I just finished knitting Fuzzy Feet. You can google it. They're slipper socks. I still need to felt them; I'm just nervous about it. ~smile~

I like your blog. I will be back.

Please drop in and say hi!

Goodness gracious!

That last comment about knitting Fuzzy Feet was from me not my husband! He's not really so domestic. ~grin~ He must have slipped in and signed me out of google and signed himself in. I pushed the post button before I noticed!

He's got a blog also; but, it is I who truly have invited you for a visit. I hope this strikes you as funny as it does me.

Feeling kinda silly,
Laura
