Circular Scrubby

I have been making "gifts for the future" and thought this scrubby was an easy gift to make.

The yarn is Lily Sugar'n Cream in Summer Splash and did not take that much. It is smaller than I would want it and may cast on more or add more rows for the next one.
This is what it looks like when you are done with knitting.
Scrubby is seamed together from cast on and bind off edge.

Knitted Hedgehog

I found this cute knitted hedgehog pattern on Etsy this past weekend. The yarns I used were:
Body: Hobby Lobby's "I Love This Yarn" in brown tweed
Face and feet: Caron "Simply Soft" in bone
Nose: Red Heat Sport in Black
I woke up Ace for the photo shoot and he was not too happy!

LB- Bright Baby Tank Top

I have a surplus of Lion Brand Incredible ribbon yarn in City Lights because of Dollar Tree. With Wal-Mart changing the layout and downsizing their craft department I have been trying to craft with what I have. I found the pattern for a baby tank top from the Lion Brand website and made it in 2 days. I am trying to stock up on baby gifts for the future.

Bowtie was nice enough to model the new tank top. I had to make a cat toy for him so he would not destroy the tank when I was knitting it.

The pattern was easy to make and great for a starting project. It seems a little short for a baby but if you do make it measure. I am going to be brave and start on the matching cardigan.
