Random Snapshots

Boteh scarf

I finished the Boteh scarf this weekend and got it blocked.  I'm really happy with how it turned out.  I used the sock yarn that I received in the special swap last month and the colors are gorgeous.  I'm still a beginner at crochet, but this was easy enough to follow and I learned a lot along the way.  I found the chart a little confusing, but after trolling blogs and finding other people working on this project I was able to put it together.

Here's a couple of pictures that Adam took on Monday night.

Here's to Wednesday and being one more day closer to the weekend! 

A little paper art

I've been scrapbooking a little this weekend.  Just some simple layouts and I wanted to share.

I've scrapped this photo before, but I wanted to use it again.  I love the market.

I also decided to practice my crocheting this weekend.  A few hours here and there and I completed the One Skein Scarf from SnB's Happy Hooker.  I used some stash yarn in pink.  Since I don't really wear pink I think I will send it to one of my little cousins.  I like the design a lot though and will probably make another in a more appropriate color.

I'm still working on Wicked.  I'm close to putting the pocket on.  I just have to try it on tonight and see if it's long enough.  I'm hoping to finish it by next weekend so that I can start on Rusted Root.  :)

Have a great week!
