apple tawashi

apple tawashi adapted from cheapknitting patterns.com and pattern error corrected by me. made of antimicrobial yarn. #8's, about 4 inches wide by 5 1/2 tall including stem.

purple orange ruffled tawashi

this shows the finished tawashi which was an option for the kal we just did. it was shown at the site in white with blue trim. o.k. so mine's purple and orange. it's recipient has a kid who's a senior at clemson so i just had to swallow my pride and knit cow college colors. i don't c*#(@) but one 15 min lesson from a friend and the i taught myself how to crochet book taught me enough that doing the edge was a breeze. entire tawashi maybe took an hour and half. i think it's just too cute. i MUST start another one asap. thanks to rhonda for the pattern and to cathy h for the blue cloth (it's a dog paw :).

fishie has an eye

the fish tawashi now has an eye. it's a crocheted ring - yes, rhonda, i actually used the hook myself - with a black center made by stitching back and forth over the "hole" in the ring. now i have a whole box of tawashi yarn in every color imaginable so look for more tawashi's. yippee!
