So, This is actually my first post on craftgrrl that contains pictures!  scaryness.

Nothing big I'm afraid, but I'm still proud of  these things as I've actually finished them for a change!

Behold

washcloth knitted according to this pattern: http://www.purpleduckie.com/butterflypatternpage.htm,
 mine didn't come out as pretty,
but eh, its the first thing ive knitted in YEARS and the first thing i ever knit according to a pattern so im quite proud of it anyway :D
(it doesnt help i knitted it on knitting needles one size to big. but i didnt feel like searching for a shop that sells knitting needles here)
for some reason it doesnt have a top border while i followed  the pattern completely litterary. That would have been easily solved by purling three rows but i only noticed it when i had allready bound it off.

by the way, does anyone know how to make your own pattern for like a figure like that? im not intrested in patterns for sweaters or anything but more for the relief picture, i googled it but came up with nothing usefull.

behold my lollipop necklace! in reality it is alot more purple, but no matter what i do my camera seems to dislike picking up the colors. (I tried with flash, without flash, at night, at day, in front of the window, away from the window, and all possible combinations of the above with everytime, the exact same picture as result :S)
its my first time creating something like this, but definately not my first time with polymer clay. it was quite fun to do, in fact im currently also working on a strawberry necklace.
