Denim Colored Phone Sock Pictures


Here are two pictures of a Denim colored phone sock that I had made recently. It is made with cotton yarn. It goes well with the poncho and matching purse that I had made a few months ago (see Knitting Samples section).

Denim Colored Phone Sock

I recently made a phone sock with the Denim colored yarn. I took a picture of it late Friday evening, so when I get the chance to put it on the computer, I'm going to post it on the web site. It is the same yarn that I had used when I made a poncho and its matching purse a few months back (see Knitting Samples section). I have a feeling you'll like the phone sock, too.

Well, this is all for now. More to come soon. Have a great week ahead.

April 18th Flea Market Thank You and Some New Phone Socks




Hello everyone. I wanted to thank those who had been at the Flea Market and either bought a Maroon and Orange phone sock, or had given a donation to help the National Kidney Foundation. It was very generous of you.

Speaking of phone socks, I am going to put some new pictures of phone socks that I had made recently. I brought them with me today to the Flea Market. Some of them are made with Baby Aqua and Brown yarn. Some are Black and Red colored, as well. I have a feeling you'll like them.

Well, I need to go for now. Thank you again for your generous donations for the National Kidney Foundation!

National Kidney Foundation Phone Socks and Sign

This is a picture of the National Kidney Foundation's flier that I had made recently for tomorrow's Flea Market event. I also made the phone socks that are the same colors of the foundation-- Maroon and Orange. As you can see from the flier, if a person purchases a phone sock with those colors, then $ 1 will be donated to the National Kidney Foundation. Please come to the Flea Market tomorrow during the day from 9am-1pm and help support the National Kidney Foundation! The address for the Montgomery County Fairgrounds in Gaithersburg is: 16 Chestnut St., Gaithersburg, Maryland. Hope to see you there!

New Pictures!

Good morning everyone! I just wanted to say that there had been some new pictures added to the Knitting Samples section right now. I'm also going to add some of the other pictures that I had promised to post very soon. Since there are so many pictures, it might take me a little while, so please be patient. I have a feeling you'll like what you see in the next few days. There are some sweaters and new phone socks, a hood, one head band, and a few other things coming up.

Speaking of pictures, I'm going to print them out and put them in a photo album to take with me to the flea market for tomorrow's event.

Well, this is all for right now. More pictures and knitting news to come soon. Have a great rest of the day!

Some new photos are coming soon!

Hello everyone. I hope you've been having a great week so far.

I wanted to let you know that I am going to be posting some of my pictures very soon. I'm going to try and do some of the pictures tomorrow afternoon. I'm sure you'll love how all of the knitted items look once you see them! Plus, one of the pictures I'm going to post will be the Cardigan Sweater that I had made a few months ago. So, for those that were wanting to see a picture of it, then you'll get your chance! There is also a Kleenex Travel Carrying Case that is made with the same yarn as the Cardigan Sweater, so they are going to be posted probably together when I do put the pictures on the web site. I'm also going to put some of the pictures on my Knitting Samples section, so please take a look at that, as well when you have the chance.

Well, this is all for right now. Have a good weekend ahead. Hope to see you all at the April 18th Indoor Flea Market at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds!

New Gray and Black Phone Socks

Well, I made two new phone socks yesterday using the gray colored yarn. I also made one other phone sock that was black. All three came out very nicely.

Later today, I plan on starting some new knitted items. Once those items are started, I'm going to update you on them soon. I might start another head band, but we'll see if I have enough time before this weekend's Flea Market event.

Well, this is all for right now. More to come in the next few days.

Denim Purse With Bamboo Handle Update & Other Projects

Well, it's Sunday and I had been working on the Denim Purse again today. I made a hole for the button and also did some work on the flap. Once the button is attached, I plan on taking some pictures of the purse for you all to see.

Speaking of knitting, I made some phone socks using the Maroon and Orange yarn skeins. I'm making more phone socks that are the colors of the National Kidney Foundation. I'm hoping to sell all 6 phone socks at this upcoming Flea Market on Saturday. If I do end up selling all of the phone socks that are Maroon and Orange, I will let you all know about it. I am also planning on donating a $1 for each sock that is that color to the NKF (National Kidney Foundation) after the Flea Market is done for the day.

Well, I better go for now. Keep on reading!

Denim Purse With Bamboo Handle

This afternoon, I started making a denim colored purse. It looks great. I'm going to start making the flap of the purse on Sunday. Once the purse and flap is completed, then I'll post a picture of the purse for you to see. It'll look a little different than the one I made with the matching poncho a while back (see the Knitting Samples section for an example).

Speaking of purses, I'm thinking of making another purse that has orange and white colored yarn together. If I get the chance to do that, then I'll see about taking some pictures of that one, as well when the time comes so I can put some of the pictures on the Knitting Samples section and some on the actual posting. If you have any other ideas as to what color to use for purses, please feel free to write a comment, or send an e-mail. I love getting new ideas and suggestions for knitting!

Well, this is all for right now. Have a great evening. Please check back now and then for the updates on my projects!

Lilac/Lavender Phone Socks

Hello everyone. I hope your week is going well for you.

I wanted to let you know that I sold two lilac/lavender colored phone socks over this past weekend. One of the phone socks that I had sold was small in size. The other one was regular sized. When I get the chance to post some of my pictures I have taken of my knitting, then I plan on adding those two phone socks to my Knitting Samples section, as well. Please look for them coming soon!

Well, this is all for right now. More knitting news to come in a few days. Have a good evening!

New Item!-- Kleenex Carrying Case

Hello everyone. I hope your weekend is going well for you.

This afternoon, I started making a new item. It's going to be a kleenex travel carrying case. The one I'm making right now is going to have multi-colored yarn (the same type as the cardigan sweater I plan to put on the Knitting Samples section soon). It's also going to have a button to close the travel carrying case once I'm done putting it together. I'm sure you'll love how it looks once you see it!

Well, this is all for right now. More to come soon! Keep checking back every so often for more updates on new items and pictures of past postings and projects.
