I got the sweetest package from my friend Delly!
Besides being a fabulous knitter, she's also taken silver smithing classes. I had admired this stitch marker - it is a kitty after all - when she made it and she was nice enough to send it to me along with the yarn it's photographed against, a crochet hook and pattern for a cute octopodish creature....
and these salt and pepper shakers which I had also admired on her blog!
Sorry for the dark photo - I live on the second floor but might as well be living in a hole because there aren't many windows...my kitchen is cave-like.
Thanks to the miracle of saving posts as a draft and a rather slow day at the office I was able to finish the above mentioned octopodish creature. His name is Pi and today is his birthday (Happy Pi Day!)....
I wrote quite a bit more but lost it due to my own stupidity and I've run out of time. Hopefully Sunday I'll have a photo of a bare but glued together doll house to post since Dad and I are getting together tomorrow to start working on it!
Just love amigurumi!! Bought a new book the other day, in fact. . .
