(Though I wrote this post before I left, when you all read this, I’ll already have been in DC for a few days. So greetings from DC!) So I signed up for a swap on Craftster that is Dollar Store themed–that is, participants must spend between five and ten dollars at the dollar store (or [...]

Okay, not really. But the main crafty portion of the package I sent to spolowitz gave me some hell. I claimed her for a knitting project bag and a learn to spin kit. First, there was a spindle and some roving, part of the stuff I ordered when I was first starting to spin: And [...]
All You Need is Love (and a Zipper Pouch)

With the extra fabric I got in my epically awesome rainbow swap package, I made a zipper pouch: I left the image large so you can see the awesome fabric. : ) It’s a pretty simple design, the pouch, used a zipper I had in the stash that I bought in a bunch from an [...]
FO: Cabled Summer Bag

Unfortunately, this did not come out how I wanted, despite modifications, so it’s headed for the frogpond (or, well, hibernation I guess because I have a metric fuckton of yellow RHSS and I can’t see needing the yarn from this bag any time soon). It’s not so bad though as I didn’t really need another [...]

So yesterday, as a lovely end to a fairly crappy day, I received one of two packages for the Craft my Wish swap on Craftster. This was something of a nontraditional swap in that the people/person you craft for are/is not the people/person you receive from. I’ll show you what I sent off in a [...]

Before I get to the pictures, here’s an update: I have completely finished Hey Teach, buttons and everything. Still need to photograph it (that’ll happen soon), but in the mean time, I have plenty of other things to post over the next week or so. I sent out one of two swap packages and am [...]

I recently participated in a swap on Craftster, the theme of which is naughty words. Awesome, yeah? Well, both my partner and myself have received, so here I will provide you with pictures of all the swear-y goodness. From me (and these are her pictures because… well, my camera, my laptop, my hard drive, and [...]
