I've got some earrings to share with you today. The local Bead Shop, (I guess in yarny type terms that would be the LBS) had some really cute kits for Christmas earrings. I made the Christmas trees a few weeks ago and the Snowmen today:
I think the little snowmen are absolutely adorable and I can't wait to wear them. They were super easy to make as well. I used sterling lever backs and t-pins. The type of beads in the kit were way to fancy for just any cheap old findings. Cute huh?
As far as knitting goes, the shawl is coming along. I figure a few more movies out to do it.
Also in the pic, (besides the little boy feet - he insisted on getting in the picture somehow - he's as bad as the cat), is my new yarn bowl! My best buddy got me this at a Holiday market. It's so funny, she had no idea what the bowl was until she asked the crafter and she knew I was the only person in the world (her world that is) that would figure out what it was. Sure enough, I opened my present today and said, "Yay! A yarn bowl!" She was very smug about the whole thing of course. :) I love her.
