Tutu!!!

I made a tutu yesterday!! It was my first attempt at making it and I like the way it turned out. It's VERY puffy!!! I already had toile around the house, it's been sitting and waiting for me to do something with it :) So here I am: toile, piece of elastic and about an hour later: baby tutu! My next project will be a crochet baby hat. That would make a perfect photo prop.

I really enjoyed making it, I'd like to make some more in other colors, I'd probably try to make them less puffy next time :)

By the way, the tutu is modeled by the sock monkey my hubby brought me from Iraq during the last deployment. He's so sweet, he always gets me something from his trips.

Filet crochet doily.

I finished the doily a while back, way before Christmas, but finally got a chance to take a picture of it. This is the initial post Here is the web-site I got the pattern from, it's free and it's really easy to follow.

And here is the result:

Filet crochet

I've been wanting to to filet crochet for a long time now. Yesterday, my mom found me a skein of YarnArt merserized cotton and I started looking around for a pattern. I found one I liked on here and started working on it right away. So far I only have a few rows done, but it looks very pretty. I will have to post it here once I'm finished.

The other pictures are from the snow that we have today. I took them off my balcony. It's so pretty to look at, but it's so wet out that we decided to stay in today.

Snow white hat

I finished my snow white hat and it could be found in my Etsy store
