a couple of pics so far




from my cell phone camera. I'll have to find the link for the flower. it's here somewhere I know. yes my feet are not only fat but swollen too. too much salt. The barefoot sandals are the pattern I'm rewriting so it's actually understandable to the actual layperson. I'll take a pic of the beaded ones and post them tomorrow (today??) and get a pic of the two different pairs I made for my mom.

hmm

think i've found one I like. it's quick and easy. (yea I know I said i wasn't going to start any new projects, but it isn't really, it's finishing a project sort of)

anyway, the pattern I found was here originally: Simple Barefoot Sandals --seems like she's moved around a whole bunch--. it's not an easy pattern to understand. (the way people write patterns seems to be the BANE OF MY EXISTENCE, I swear!!!) I'm rewriting it and figuring out a way to add beads so I'll post that and pics of my finished items and email her (maybe) when I'm done too.

quick update

I finished a pair of barefoot sandals for my mom, a baby hat, sweater and booties for a baby shower (the site with the hat pattern is down ), and I finished some loom knit arm-warmers. I'll post pics as soon as I'm done unpacking from my move and know where the heck the charger is (yes, it's lost again).

Oh, yea, I moved!!

Also, I'm DETERMINED to finish all my started projects before I start anything new.

and I'm trying this pattern here next. :)

Also, when I DO start a new project, I'm up in the air on whether I want to do this one: Crochet Kimono or this one on the cover from Just Wraps that I have sitting here and I've been drooling over for a couple years now. It's knitting. I'm better with crochet and the yarn for the knitting one is a bit difficult for me to work with but they are BOTH OH SO FREAKIN CUTE!!!
