Keep On Keeping On

November 5, 2009

The Cap’t feels like dancing. Of course this may have to do with the fact that I just finished a lovely pair of legwarmers and am reminded of Flashdance and Footloose -all of those wonderful movies from the 80’s that had dancing in them.

Pretty In Pink

For The Dancer In Us All

I made these to test the pattern offered for free by the lovely CrochetKitten before diving into the most divine mohair/silk blend yarn from Casscade.

These lovely pink ones will be gifted to my pirate-in-training niece for Christmas.

I love the pattern and feel that with some adjustments it would make the most loveliest of fingerless gloves. (And off I go with the fingerless gloves….)

More to come soon.

Gloves for a Rabbit

Gloves for a Rabbit

These lovely gloves were recently shipped to a wonderful rabbit friend. (Note the nifty band!)

And these lovely pair of gloves were whipped up as a birthday present for the little girl of an old friend. Not shown is the beading detail I added after the fact.

I am also making a second pair (not the same) of gloves for the birthday girl’s sister as when she found out from her father what I was up to expressed sadness that she was not going to get a pair. I remember well the younger years of having a sibling…

On the hook as well is another design -this time I am working on a pair of wristers that can also be worn as gloves. At the moment they come across as rather steamy to me. (steam punk) but that might be due to the color I am working with. It’s a nice dark red.

That’s it for now.
