gifts for others

[trystan830.livejournal.com]

previously (here and over in my LJ) i'd posted a picture of a totebag i'd crocheted. a friend (S) commented something about a kindle cover.... and an idea was born. under the cut are pictures of her kindle cover (that i'll be sending to her tomorrow) as well as a pair of slippers i made (from the same yarn) for a different friend of mine (F). i hope she comes over soon to try them on to make sure they fit, as they were a surprise. =)

both items were made from the same yarn, which is Vanna's Choice, Purple Mist. both were made with a Boye G hook. the slippers pattern is from zoomyummy, the e-reader cover is my own pattern (based on the tote bag i made.) no, she doesn't get my paperback book wtih it, that's just for size. i won't have an e-reader. click on the pics to view larger.

e-Reader cover:

i know the second pic has weird lighting, but it really is the same e-reader cover. ;)

slippers:


also, i'm thinking of making another LJ for my crochet crafts, so if you see my icon but a different name, that's still me. it'll have the name "trys" in it somewhere, so it's recognizable.
