Bet you can't make just one!

I was organizing my yarn the other day, (or trying to) and came across a bag of small balls of leftover dishcloth yarn. It reminded me of a pattern I saw on Abigails' blog for these scrubbies or 'bath poufs'. She calls them Tribbles because like the Tribbles in the Star Trek episode, they multiply. I still have slow dial up service (DSL has still not come to my part of town) so I keep a knitting project next to my computer while I'm waiting for pages to load. These are perfect little projects for computer knitting! And, along with handmade soap, or shower gel, they will make nice little gifts. Bet you can't make just one!!!


My ITEIV tote package is ready to mail out. I hope my partner enjoys it as much as I enjoyed putting it together. I love the Pursenality Plus book that I won in the last ITE swap so much, I'm sending my pal a copy, along with some other goodies.
And....yes, I've been dyeing with kool-aid again - got to start knitting something with this yarn!
I'm also collecting things for my downstream pal in the Knitters Virtual Vacation Swap. I won't say where she is from, just in case she comes across my blog, but we've been e-mailing back and forth and she's so friendly that I'm having trouble trying to stay anonymous! I haven't heard from my upstram pal yet - so if you are reading this - HI! I'd love to hear from you!

A Blank Canvas

I finished knitting the tote for my ITEIV Pal, gave it a bath And now it's drying. I know it doesn't look like much right now, but just think of it as a blank canvas just waiting to be embellished! I was going to embellish with sewn on felted flowers, but now it's just calling out to me to be needle felted. While it's drying I started another bag - just in case this one doesn't turn out like the picture in my head! I'm making "Jayne's AP Bag" in colors that my pal says she likes. When they are both done I'll decide which one I think she will like the best - maybe I will let you all vote on it?
