Knitted Wristbands and Earring Projects
I take the lousiest photos with my digicam. I have yet to master the art of this. So in the meantime bear with me through these partially blurry crappy photos.
The first item is a 'cracky' wristband I made for my friend Jackie. That's her nickname. I used cotton blend yarn for the black and this puffy pulled cotton looking pink fluff for the other yarn. The cuffs are ribbed with three rows on each side. The pictures really don't do it justice. I know the letters look a bit messy in these pics but I trimmed up the fuzz and when you wear it the letters lay out much nicer.
The second item was done with the same materials. Except this one was for me and it's a giant M. The only problem is I doubled up the yarn on the pink and it made a pretty large puffy M. I have to take pictures of the gigantic puffy heart one I made which is way too puffy. I'll add those later.
I designed all my own wristbands using graph paper to lay out the designs. No more copying out of books!
The last item is my first foray into beading, jewelry making and wire bending. My first pair of earrings made from silver findings, silver wire and lampwork beads as well as two small crystal disc beads.
