NEW TOYS

The other day I went in to JoAnn's with my coupons, and came out with two new toys! The best part is I only spent $5!

The first one is a Knifty Knitter Straw Weaver set. It's an interesting little gadget. Basically you thread yarn through the straws, then weave yarn over the straws. Slide the straws out, tie off some ends, and wa la. I made this little bookmark for fun. I honestly don't know how much I will use this, but it is kind of fun.

The second "TOY" is the smallest of the new Knifty Knitter Long Loom series, the pink loom. For a play with the loom project I am making a purse with round bamboo handles, using Lion Brand Thick and Quick yarn. I'll post the picture when it's done. So far I like this little loom. It will come in handy.

8/20 Here is the purse I made on the little KK2 loom. I think it will get used for something such as a bag to hold clothes pins, or even those plastic bags you get at the grocery.
