New Hobby and ISE5 Scarf

It's been a while. I joined ISE5 and have had a few finished objects. Here are a couple and I will try and add a few more next week as I finish blocking them.

Ok I took a wire work class and loved it. So I have a new hobby Beading!


Here is a couple of bookmarks and my first bracelet. I made the bracelet totally by hand. Just wire and some beads, This is addicting. I also made some stitch markers. And it's instant gratification, since you can make everything in like an hour, designing is your biggest time waster.

Ok I made Faina's scarf in a dark fuchsia out of Frog Tree Alpaca for my ISE5 pal. I love this scarf, originally I wanted to make a scarf with beads but that didn't work out, and I was worried about not finishing on time, so I decided on Faina's since I love it. It's a beautiful lacy scarf that is also warm. Now I need to add Fringe and am going to see if I can find something other then the usual. Though that is nice. The fringe is going to be new for me so hopefully don't screw it up. I usually don't like Fringe but since making this for someone else I might as well add it. After that it's just blocking and coming up with some extra's for my pal.

BTW for all you mothers or mother figures out there here is a great little video.
