Current Projects

Right now, I'm working on knitting an afghan and sewing a cross-stitch pattern of butterflies. I've been working on my cross-stitch picture since last summer and still haven't finished! But I'm really close. I love the picture because some of the colours are mixed with sparkly thread and the canvas is printed with what looks like faded envelopes and stamps in the background. The afghan on the other hand is barely started... I've only knitted about less than a foot; it has to be alot longer! But it's a simple pattern that I can do while I'm watching TV or talking to my friends, but just different enough from straight knitting that I don't find it boring. It might take me a few months to finish the afghan, but I'm hoping to finish the cross-stitch this month. We'll see how it goes :P

Cross-Stitch Ballerina

This was my first cross-stitch project. It took me at least a few months and I definitely made a few mistakes which you can't actually see on the finished picture. I picked this pattern because of my love of dance and the anime style is so cute!
