This time I wanted to show you the gifts I've made for a swap at wizaz.pl forum. The topic of the swap was (more or less) "Goodbye summer/back to school" and I made two presents (and got two :D).
The first present consisted of:
- a big teddy- a soft pencil
(you can make a similar with this pattern: http://www.etsy.com/storque/how-to/how-tuesday-petite-pencil-from-mochimochi-land-10681 ; I made a few changes to the pattern to fit my needs, but that's where I took my inspiration from. Besides, I'm not really that good at reading knitting patterns in English yet...)
- a small teddy - a pencil topper :)
- and a knitted pencil case
The second one was similar:
- a pencil coaster (according to a great pattern by Yarn Pixie: http://yarn-pixie.blogspot.com/2009/10/back-to-school-coaster-free-crochet.html ; be sure to check out her other lovely patterns!)
- again a pencil case with a teddy-pencil topper (both pencil cases are the same color, this photo shows it better...)
-and crochet butterflies
Well, I hope you like them :)
I also have a new idea for my blog: a Favorite Freebies Friday which is going to be a collection of free patterns from all over the web, published on every second Friday here at my blog. And I'll start tomorrow! :) Hope you'll pop in to visit me.
Have a great day, everybody :)
oh, i love the butterflies! i'm so super glad that you will have 'favorite freebies friday'. what a great idea!
