iPad Cases

When I got my iPad I decided to get a case for it too, unfortunately the case was on back order for a MONTH and I needed some sort of protection for my iPad now. So I crocheted myself a protective case. Once I got the official case I needed to make another one because I had fallen in love with my first one but it no longer fit. Your choice of colors, up to three, $25.


Bags, bags, everywhere

I also started making gift bags, which are a blast to make, and super easy thanks to the knifty knitter. Bags can be made in a variety of sizes from small to large. Prices vary depending on size and color preferences.

Tis the Season....

This past Christmas I realized that I was very very broke (as a graduate student, this is often the case) and I still have a very large family that I like to give presents to. My solution? Pull out my box of buttons and all my scrap yarn that I never did anything with but couldn't throw away and produced.... homemade ornaments! $2 each or 6 for $10. Color and button patterns are random.

Hats galore

Next up was mastering hats, and of course, where there's a hat, there should be kitty ears! I'm contemplating bunny ears next.... I don't have a price for the hat but am willing to take any good offer, this cute hat needs a home (my boyfriend has forbid me wearing it!)

Mini-Octos

Once I had figured out how to make an octopus I of course had to make a miniature one. And of course then I started attaching a key chain to it, makes for a very cute key accessory. Octo key chains are $6 each. Your choice of one color. Additional colors are $1 each.

Octo-Buddies

The first real crafty project I learned to do and fell in love with were stuffed octopi. They are approximately 8 inches wide and 2 to 3 inches tall. They can come in any color or pattern desired (assuming I have or can get a hold of the yarn) and the stuffing is 100% hypoallergenic. Pre-made Octopi are $12 and custom colors are an additional $2.
