Scrap Fabric Knit Bracelets

Here's a fun idea for using up pieces of scrap fabric!  For both of these bracelets I used knit fabric, one was an orange and black striped knit and the other was a purple camo knit. 

I cut one inch width strips of fabric then cut a small hole on each of the ends to slip on strip through the other in order to connect them. 

I used U.S. Size 10 knitting needles and C.O. of 6 sts.  I knit for about 6 inches, till it wrapped around my wrist, then made a crochet chain for the loop at the end.

Happy knitting!

Octopus Cowl

My latest creation: The Octopus Cowl!

This cowl was surprisingly easy to get done, I thought I would have a hard time when it came to the tentacles.  I knit the cowl part in the round on circular needles then knit the tentacles on dpns.

I used Wool-Ease Thick & quick yarn in claret.  It's super bulky weight and so warm and cozy!  I don't know why but I am really into octopuses right now.  Yes I said octopuses watch the video and don't judge me. Lol.

I Googled the plural for octopus and found that video... lol, ignorant slob, so funny. :p

But anyway, as I was saying, into octopuses... I'm going to try making an octopus coffee cozy too.  Also, I've been into making fabric appliques for t-shirts recently and I plan to make an octopus one as well.

By the way, Coffee says hi!

See ya later!

New Hat :)

This is the first hat that I've knit that I can honestly call a success!  I've knit other hats following different patterns all of which claiming to be super easy and yet none of them worked out right for me.  This pattern really was super easy and fast!  I used Lion Brand Homespun yarn, so it's nice and soft, and so comfy. :)

I'm so happy with how this piece turned out, it fits great and I love how it looks.  The pattern is from Bohoknits:  "Mountain Nights Toque."  She has a list of free patterns on her blog and also some for sale on Etsy.  Her "Wilted Warlock Hat" also looks like something I must try. :)

Coffee approves. 

See ya later!
