Very nice! I love to make and design felted hats..and originally started to display them on foam heads..then I found those magnificent glass heads on Ebay! I have a bay window in my bedroom where my creations are displayed on the glass heads...sometimes I add sunglasses or glue a rhinestone onto the earlobe for an earring!!

 

[Omaest]

The glass heads are a cool idea - e bay, here I come!

Love them! What yarn did you use in scarf?

Beautiful. I love the vest. I haven't tried anything like that yet....was it an easy pattern?

 

[yellowsparrow]

i think the vest is so cute too where did you find the pattern would like to try it . thanks for sharing everything looks really nice

 

[ArleneFaye]

Your things are so beautiful, and Very nice for a beginning knitter. You have the skill!
I especially like the little name tag on your scarf. I have always thought about doing those for myself, but have never gotten to it. Did you print them yourself? I like that touch.

you do wonderful work, love all your projects!

Love the vest. Using 2 different color buttons is so clever and really adds to the look.

 

[Omaest]

Yes, I did the name tag myself - thanks for the compliment

 

[Omaest]

The name of the pattern is Girl's Cap Sleeve Cardi Vest from Knitting Pure & Simple. I didn't find it too hard, but started it at least three times before I was satisfied with the way it was going. It was the first time I attempted arm holes.

I can see I'm going to have to keep tabs on the types of yarn, needles, etc. on the projects. I know the colorful scarf was done with Noro yarn - but don't recall the other scarf. If I can remember, or find the tag - I'll send another reply.

I am a beginning knitter. But I am not afraid to try mroe complex stitches/pattersns. I just resign myself to the notion that it will take me much longer as I will likely end up ripping back a few times as I get used to the stitch. That sweater is adorable. If you have the pattern written down or know where I can find it on-line would you be willing to share?

The tags I use are almost like yours ~ Business Card Factory has lots of options!
I also print out washing instructions for all items.

Such beautiful things you've made. I wish I could knit but I have to be content to crochet. Thanks for sharing your pictures.
