Got Courage?

This lion sure does! Following the Beary Bean, the lion is for David's nephew Liam. To the right, modeled by Beth who makes it obvious how very cute it is.

Scrap Cat

My very first crocheted friend. This is Scrap Cat and he was made as an experiment out of scrap yarn with no pattern. He was given to a special friend as a Winter Solstice gift. I think he's pretty funny with all of those random yarns, and he's not very soft. He doesn't have any bottom legs either as he is just like the velveteen rabbit. And we all like him just the way he is. Go Scrappy!

Happy Winter Solstice

I was a craft vendor at the PDX Etsy holiday sale at PSU. My mom came to this event with me and we had a good time. It cost me $24 for my table and luckily I sold one hat, a $24 dollar hat. I am thankful for that. Also, for the other vendors that I got to meet who are all really awesome and inspiring people! At the end I got to trade with other vendors. I traded a hat for some earrings and a hat for a ceramic tea cup. Awesome!
It did weird me out a bit that I was able to sell hats better in September than December. But I know some reasons why including the two other vendors who were selling beautiful knit/crochet hats and the farmer's market vendor who was selling crocheted hats and homemade yarn.
It was a great day either way, and I've found that I LOVE trading! So, let me know what you've got ;)

Beanie Hat with ears - Candy Cane

Beanie Hat with ears - Candy Cane,
originally uploaded by earthyeye.

Many new hats with ears are being made to keep cold ears warm. This hat is just in time for the holiday all dressed in candy cane.

Keep your hat on!

This one is quite a fun hat. It's a beanie hat with ears and a chin strap that buttons. What a great idea Beth! It's soft, it's warm and it's stylish!

Baby Bean meets Winter Bean

It's true, it's true. A Winter Bean for the little one. Of course the first one goes to Claire, my ultimate hat model. Isn't it the cutest thing you've ever seen? Now her ears are warm! I better get on another one as she's going to grow out of this one real quick!
