Stuff

Here is the Calicifer toy completed. The most difficult part was actually getting the eyes right. The second most difficult was finding the orange fun fur. I went out and bought the stuff for this because I wanted to make him, but I am finding that small stuffed toys are great for using up those little scraps of yarn from larger projects. So far the best sites I have found for patterns anad ideas are www.lionbrand.com www.ravelry.com and www,craftster.org.




The rug is almost completed, but what color to border it in? Seems like everyone is split evenly on this.. I think it may boil down to what do I have the most of in my stash?

Pajama pants are the big thing again this year, but why do they call them lazy or leisure pants now? It seems that flannel is not recommended for children's sleepwear because of a lack of fire retardation. BUT the fire retardant fabrics have been found to release a chemical that may kill children too. So LEGALLY it looks like we cannot put our children (Under age 12) in any clothing. Our government at work.
