And so far so good so maybe I will make some more. They crack me up.

First of all I have to say this page has some pretty darn funny cat photos on it. I found it using Stumbleupon: http://www.siliconhell.com/madcat/cathumour/aw1.htm

Tonight I finished a crocheted hat I started yesterday. I'm glad it's too small for me because I need some smaller hats for my Etsy store and I just can't seem to make them smaller than what I wear. This hat has little bobbles (puffs) on top to add interest. As usual, every hat I make is one-of-a-kind. That's because I'm an artist, not a factory. It's a chipper orange and blue in acrylic yarn. Toss in washer and dryer, squash in suitcase for travel...easy peasy.

I decided to make today a productive day. The first thing I did was finish my pig for the Etsy Zoo Game. This week's animal is the FLAMINGO so I didn't want to get too far behind. It's the first Etsy listing I've posted in a while so it's good to get off of top dead center.

Then I posted a listing for my 2nd entry in the Beads4You Winter Challenge sponsered by Beads4You and Etsy. It's a copper and pink seed bead circlet that can also be worn as a necklace.

After adding the new photos to Flickr and Etsy, I decided to take the plunge and get a Pro Account on Flickr. I had one I won as a gift for 3 months, and it's great to be able to give the public full access to hundreds of photos I've taken over the years rather than just the 200 the free account allows. It also cuts down on the constant reloading of the same photo as they tend to fall off the list when you have the free account.

Today I finished four projects for displays. One of them was a scrapbook page for a wedding. If you want to read more about it, here is an article I wrote about it.

The purse is knitted with a crochet strap.

The Amigurumi elephant is crochet.

The Baby Booties are knit.

And the artist is tired.

I love crafts and I love to see what everyone is knitting, sewing, painting, crocheting, forging, and spinning. So if you have something to show off, post away. Leave comments with links and I'll go take a looksie. You know you wanna.
