slippers
i just made the pattern a lot easier to do (i hope lol) my grandmother taught me how to make them about 20 yrs ago. she showed me how so i had to right the pattern by making the slippers. every year for christmas my family loves to get their "squishy" package. the top slipper shows it right side out the bottom one is inside out so you can see how it looks. noone has test knitted this so if there are any problems please hollar and i will be more than happy to fix it. they are VERY easy and a really good way to use up left over acrylic.

dravens hat
sians purse
this one was for my cousins little girl. i made 11 of them for christmas presents for the little girls this past year. i used Rhonda Whites alphabet patterns and found pretty patterns out of the 365 calander (which i use alot) to make them. a friend of mine sewed the liner in for me and then i sewed up the sides. unfortunately i didnt get a picture of all of them before christmas and i didnt get a picture of sians sewn up. but i plan on making more of them in the future.
