Last weeks crafties

Last week I made some birthday gifts for my family members, here's a few of them some were finished just. in. time. and missed the photoshoot. MIA are a charcol knit beanie, and some yummy chocolate covered caramels mmmmmm.
A little tote for nephew to tote his cars in (very important for a 2 yr old)

















Rowan liked it too :)








A reusable car trash can for my brother in-law, who's been waiting for one of these for well over 2 years.













A pair of up-cycled wool slippers for my brand new baby neice.


















And a grown up pair for my partner on Valentines




















The kids were feeling crafty too....

Customs orders, a trade, and knitting

Here's the most recent custom orders, a size pack of 11" Strawberry Shortcake and more 12.5" minky topped pads.


























Then some boxy bags for a trade, I'm awaiting some yarn & soft soled shoes in exchange :)


















I made this mini shawl for me using the Far Away, So Close pattern http://www.sweetmamasmallsugar.com/ This is the second pattern I've used from SMSS and they're very user friendly.
