DH’s birthday was this week. Crochet Diva crocheted him a “Crime Scene — Do Not Cross” Scarf. He won’t be able to use it until winter, but nonetheless, here it be:
Happy Birthday!

We’ve had really beautiful weather lately, so Rob’s Dad invited us over for a BBQ on Saturday. Turns out we had SNOW! Rob’s Dad BBQ’d anyway. 
Kristin went with her band class to go ice skating, but the rest of us went to the BBQ.
Here is the picture story — again taken on cell phone… :-/

I’ve been addicted to the felted wool thing here recently, and Rob loves the felted wool look, so I was experimenting on making him a felted wool hat. Being new to this and all, I’m very unsure of how much bigger than the finished item that a person needs to make things. Here is his hat before felting (He was busy working, so I stuck the hat on him and took a picture — He did at least give me a little smile):
Well, so like I said, this is the first hat that I’ve felted. I wasn’t sure how large I needed to make it. Needless to say, Rob didn’t get a new hat, but Zoe did!! It started out Rob size, and after felting, Zoe has a beautiful felted orange hat. She’s gotten to where lately she poses for the camea and says “CHEESE”.
This hat was crocheted with Lions Brand 100% wool yarn. For felting, I put the hat in a small HOT load in the washer with a couple pairs of jeans and washing powder (Tide with Bleach). I ran a normal cycle, then put everything in the dryer on high. I take my felted items out of the dryer as soon as it finishes so they won’t cool and wrinkle.
