Green and Purple Arm Warmers

Speaking of me breaking the bank at Imaginknit, there was some other delicious yarn that I bought there that fateful day with Emily. This was Drops Eskimo yarn, in Bordeaux and in Yellowgreen. They are both very aptly named, I think. Anyway, I used these yarns to make some arm warmers, partially on Muni and partially while watching an excellent Star Trek (DS9) episode about Dr. Bashir and some other genetically modified humans. Yay for Dr. Bashir!

As always, there are more pictures of these on Flickr! And, they are also for sale at my Etsy shop :) .

Mama’s Potholders

Speaking of potholders, I also made these ones, which I gave to my mom:

Here they are up close:

And look! You can hang them up!

Emily’s Potholders

My friend Emily has embarked on a journey to France! Before she left, we went to the beach. It was lovely!

Oh, but that’s not related to crochet! I also gave her these potholders I made:

She probably won’t use them in France, but she’s going to keep them safe until she goes back to Chicago in the fall, and then she will use them :) .

Set of 2 Pale Yellow Potholders

My first Etsy listing! I made these in Santa Barbara and on the way down. They’re made out of cotton yarn.

Luckily, I figured out how to shape them correctly, so these ones do not look like stingrays.

Set of 6 Teal Potholders

They let me onto the airplane with my crochet hook (tangentially, Heathrow security is the funniest thing ever), so I started working on these potholders for my dad and his wife.

This was my first try at this design, so they aren’t that perfectly shaped.

My dad says they look like stingrays. I think stingrays are cool.

Jil’s Handwarmers

AMENDMENT.  One more thing from the UK:

These I made for my sister. But here they are on my hands!

Here’s the flower close up, & there are more photographs on Flickr (this is true for most of my posts).
