..2 EASY PROJECTS IN 2 DAYS..

ABOUT OH 3 YEARS AGO(HAHA)MY COUSIN ASKED ME TO MAKE HER A PURSE AND I JUST KEPT PUTTING OFF AND EVERYTIME I WOULD SEE HER SHE WOULD ASK ME WHERE HER PURSE WAS..WELL I HAVEN'T SEEN HER IN ABOUT 2 YEARS AND THOUGHT WHEN I SEE HER FOR THE BABY SHOWER THAT SHE IS PUTTING TOGETHER FOR HER SISTERS I WOULD SURPRISE HER WITH THIS ONE..

I LOOKED ALL OVER RAVELRY AND KNITTINGPATTERNCENTRAL AND COULDN'T FIND A PURSE THAT I THOUGHT WOULD SUIT HER SO I CAME UP WITH MY OWN VERY EASY PATTERN..SUPER SIMPLE..

ALL I DID WAS STOCKINETTE STITCH..MOSS STITCH AT THE TOP SO I WOULDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT CURLING AT THE ENDS AND THEN I SWITCHED UP THE COLORS..

ANYONE THAT KNOWS ME SHOULD KNOW THAT I AM CHEAP..VERY CHEAP AND DON'T SPEND MUCH ON THE LITTLE ACCESSORIES LIKE THE HANDLE STRAP THAT I GOT OFF ONE OF MY OLD PURSES THAT I NEVER USE..

IT WAS AN OLD UGLY BROWN STRAP SO I TRIED TO THINK OF SOMETHING THAT I COULD DO TO SPICE IT UP A BIT..I THOUGHT ABOUT PAINTING IT BUT DECIDED THAT PROBABLY WOULDN'T BE A GOOD IDEA SO I WENT THROUGH SOME OF MY SCRAP YARN AND FOUND A PRETTY PURPLE THAT I WRAPPED AROUND THE HANDLES..:):)..

AT THE BOTTOM OF IT I DID A QUICK WHIP STITCH JUST TO GIVE IT SOMETHING DIFFERENT..

HERE IS HOW I ATTACHED THE HANDLES..

A LITTLE CLOSE UP OF THE HANDLES AND THE PURSE..

I REALLY HOPE SHE LIKES IT..WHICH I'M SURE SHE WILL..:):)



I HAVE ALSO WANTED TO KNIT ME A CASE FOR MY MP3 PLAYER FOR AWHILE BUT NEVER HAVE GOT THE CHANCE..SO I DECIDED TO DO THAT TODAY FOR A SIMPLE RELAXING PROJECT..

I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT YARN THIS IS..??..IT DIDN'T HAVE A LABEL ON IT AND I ALSO FOUND THIS GOING THROUGH SOME OF MY SCRAP YARN TODAY TOO SO I THOUGHT I WOULD USE IT TO GET IT OUT OF THE WAY..


ALL I DID IN THIS WAS MOSS STITCH AGAIN..I REALLY LIKE THAT STITCH ALOT BUT HATE GOING BACK AND FORTH FROM KNITTING AND PURLING BUT THIS WASN'T A VERY BIG PROJECT SO I THOUGHT I WOULD GIVE IT SOMETHING DIFFERENT..

I MADE A LITTLE BUTTON HOLE AT THE TOP AND TOOK THE YARN AND TIED IT IN A FEW KNOTS AND JUST ATTACHED IT ON THERE..HOPEFULLY IT STAYS..:):)..

IT FITS..!!..YAYAYA..

THIS IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN UP TO THE PAST 2 DAYS..I REALLY NEED TO GET A BIG PROJECT DONE THOUGH BEFORE WE MOVE BACK HOME..



WE HAVE ALSO BEEN BUSY GETTING OUR HOUSE PACKED UP..RAY AND I DID THE UPSTAIRS ON TUESDAY..EVERYTHING IS DOWN OFF THE WALLS AND MOST THINGS ARE IN BOXES..:):)..

I AM NOW WAITING FOR HIM TO BRING ME HOME MORE BOXES SO I CAN START SOME MORE ON THE DOWNSTAIRS..



CARRIE AND GRANT ARE COMING UP IN LESS THAN 20 DAYS TO TAKE SOME STUFF BACK WITH THEM AND THEN DAD AND JERRY(MAYBE LURCH)ARE COMING UP ON THE 27TH TO GET THINGS PACKED AND THEN WE ARE HEADING BACK ON THE 28TH..!!..



SO MANY THINGS TO DO BUT WE CAN GET IT DONE BEFORE THEN..



I HOPE..:P:P..
