fireman hats (and another owl)

it's been hard to get anything posted on this website lately, because almost everything i've been working on has been for christmas, and i wouldn't want to risk people figuring out what their gifts are ;). these cute little firehats are for my girls' best friends, two brothers who love firemen/trucks/etc... naturally these little firefighters have plenty of gear, but i thought a little winter-weather appropriate hat might be nice :). we gave them to the boys yesterday, and their mom informed me that they love them, so it's good enough for me! Merry Christmas J & D!

also another of the cute little sleepy owl hats for a sweet little toddler. i loved the turquoise-purple combo--one of my personal favorite owl-hats to date!

newsboy hat

this little beauty is for a friend, made from alpaca yarn, it's super-soft, and just a bit slouchy. It looks huge on my 5-yr old, but I promise, I made it to fit my friend :). We loved working in the little flower... just a bit girly, but not too much.

I'll have lots more new posts and ideas up after Christmas--amazing how limited I am in what I can post till then!

monster slippers

these super-cute monster eye slippers were made for a friend's nephews for christmas, bug brother gets blue--he's 2, and baby brother gets the green (hopefully the bootie-design will help him keep them on!)
