First Calender Project Complete

I have finished the 1st project in my calendar!  Not only that, but its been posted on Etsy!  So the basket was kind of a fun project.  It was really fast and fun to make.  In the process of making it the cat found a ball of yarn that I had wound in order to keep 3 strands at all times.  the cat stole it and chased it around the couch and livingroom for a long time.  It was so entertaining though so I let her go til she got bored and then rewound it. 

Not only did I finish the basket, but I have officially opened my Etsy store!  I posted the basket and it will be $8.00 and i'm really excited to see if I get any hits, or orders on my basket.  I think I will have to post more before the store really gets moving though.

In other news, I have started the next project in the calender.  It is a place-mat I will be making it with a really nice deep red yarn and make a few so I can sell those next.  I ordered a really pretty yarn on Lionbrand but it hasn't been shipped yet so I'm a little bummed.  I hope I get it before I finish the place-mats.

  1. What a beautiful basket! Are you sure you have to sell it? It looks so nice on our coffee table, and I bet Lexie will try to curl up in it before long. :-D
