Recent makings

Item #1:

I MADE A KNITTED TIE FOR FATHER'S DAY. Really. This is probably the coolest thing I've ever made. I couldn't believe it actually turned out looking like a tie that is actually usable as a tie.

Of course, it helps to have a fabulous model:




The satin lining and a close up of the fine handcrafted stitching. (Don't look too close.)

Item #2:
A fun purple, stylish, size 12 months, flowered helmet hat.




To be worn on this little sweetie's head, hopefully, this fall/winter:
