Crocheted Lizard Bookmarks
These are cute bookmarks I made from yarn I spun. I got some moving eyes and glued them on to make them look lively.

Woven Patchwork Blanket
This is a large project in process. I have quite a bit of different samples of yarns I spun, but not enough of each color to make a real project, so I pulled out my Weavette Looms and woven squares and rectangles to use of the yarns (since these little looms are continuous weaves, there is no waste. I warp as I weave at the same time. I'm also using black commercial wool yarns to crochet a border to make it easier to sew the patches together.

Two more Skeleton T-Shirts for Halloween 2008 for my Husband
Back View of my Husband's Skeleton Face T-Shirt
Here is the front view of my Husband's Skeleton Face T-Shirt. I bought both a black and white T-shirt his size, washed them both and the white one shrunk quite a bit. What I'm supposed to do is tuck the black T-shirt inside the white T-Shirt with the Skeketon's Face features cut out so you'll see the black t-shirt through the eyes, nose and space between the teeth. My Husband was cleaver enough to have me cut off the front of the white t-shirt, sew it in front of the black t-shirt and the cut-outs from the white t-shirt, sew them on the back of the black t-shirt. The shirt turned out nicer, plus he didn't want two layers of t-shirts which it would have been if I followed the instructions closely, but I couldn't because of the white t-shirt shrinking. I liked my Husband's t-shirt a little better than mine, but I was still proud of both t-shirts. Since I get cold easy, it worked out.
