The Intention Is Good

You know when you find a great yarn or yarn pack and you highly intend to make something great with it but sadly discover the pack has insufficient yardage for the project you thought would be perfect for.  Well that is this yarn, Caron Pantone 60% Acrylic, 20% Nylon and 20% Merino Wool I thought I'd try making a hat pattern I bought from MyRoseValley a while back. It has the 5 colors needed for the pattern however each color after unraveling the hanks to roll into workable balls of yarn is not much. I bought the two below and have used almost all the dark brown below of both balls.  I thought I'd try switching to the light brown until the pretty pattern part but that may not look right.  May have to go back to yarn store today.

Has anyone else tried making anything with this yarn?




This past week I finished my Valentine's hang.  I used Annie Design Crochet hearts
pattern and the cutie pie flowers by Queen Babs on Instagram.






For sewing projects, I work on my EPP, paper pieces here and there.  I have 
been joining more of them now. 



I made myself and sleep mask, should of darkened it out inside a bit more and
a pin cushion to go around the machine.


As well as a lip balm holder for my key chain.  Winter requires constant application.


And my girl has her own bandana now.



Caturday.


Happy weekend all!

Christmas countdown



I finished my plaid pumpkin this week that I wanted to make as soon as I saw this on Instagram.
Pattern is from MegMadeWithLove. It took me a week to finish a few rows here and there.
The below picture is on a shelf with my dad's carvings. I believe I get my creativeness from him.



I added a few more accessories to my wreath.


Finished my hat off with a pom pom.  However, I think it needs a bigger pom pom.
I tried to find one of those faux fur ones that was the rage a bit ago but no store in 
my area seems to carry them anymore and ordering online, the shipping costs more
than the pom pom.  


I've been making little gifts for Christmas. 
What have you been working on? 

And a cute one of  our youngest cat.  He sure has the life.
