Crocheted Mittens

Finally! I started these a long time ago, then forgot about them, then picked them up again & finished them in the last two days. I pretty much winged it, using the Family of Mittens pattern & this pattern as guidelines.



I used the same yarn as for my tam (Lion Brand Wool-Ease in Mushroom), & they're all done in single crochet. I'm very pleased with how these came out, except there's a strange line running across the left one. Oh well, they fit perfectly, & now I don't have to worry about my fingers falling off during this cold weather.

"It's my birthday today!"

Brandon's birthday was on the 17th, so I stenciled a shirt for him.



The stencil is placed on the bottom front of the shirt. I was going to put "It's my birthday today!" on the chest, but then I thought he wouldn't wear it any other time. Turns out he would, I should've known. Anyway, it came out PERFECTLY. I was surprised that there weren't any mistakes considering the number of little details.

Mushroom Tam.

My first completed crochet project (besides baby booties) based on the Rasta Tam tutorial by patchworkarmy. I called it the Mushroom Tam because I was tickled by the name of the color yarn I used, Mushroom.



You will see more of these.
