Yes! I know...it's been almost a year since I posted. I was busy trying several other ventures which just made me too busy to concentrate on the things I love most. Lesson learned and now I'm back.
I was all set with projects to do this new year but unfortunately I injured my right thumb from (get this) playing the Wii. Apparently I was pushing down too hard for a long period over the course of several days that I strained my thumb, wrist, and forearm muscles. Darn that Kirby Epic Yarn Game. It was so much fun but now I'm paying the price. I never realized how much easier life was with my thumb. I can't wait until I get better.
Since I can't post new projects I planned on, I will present to you daily projects I did last year, which I haven't posted. First up is my Snowmen Family made from knitted gloves.
This is one that I made for my family.
And here's the close-up. My oldest said they look more like penguins than snowmen.
Hey! It was my first attempt. I still like it.
My second attempt.
This one was actually an order that I received during a craft show. This is the original piece before my customer decided to change the mom snowman's hair bow to a different color.
She went with purple and was pleased. I meant to take a picture
before giving it to her but I forgot. Sorry.
Here's one I did for my brother's family. My third attempt and looking better.
Now they do look like snowmen.
And the close-up.
This is the last set I made for a good family friend. This the close-up of their snowmen family.
This idea is not original. I don't think I'm that creative as of yet. Anyhoo...this fantastic idea came from a super creative lady named Sheri. Click

Hope you enjoyed it.
