Willy Warmer..LOL

I have a funny story to go along with this. My brothers fiance brought a 'willy warmer' home from Germany for my brother as a silly joke gift. He's got it hanging from the mirror in his living room. The more I saw it when I was over his house, the more I thought I can make that. With no pattern, I started to crochet one for Kevin as a joke stocking stuffer for Christmas. As I worked on it, I laughed so hard I was crying most of the time. I thought it came out perfect. I love the tassel on the end..lol. I laugh each time I look at it!!! The picture you see is not completely finished...I added a tie around the whole thing to finish it off. Kevin thought it was very funny but refused to try it on..lol (not suprising).

Kevin just left on Sunday for his annual ski trip with a few of his good friends. After he packed his clothes, I snuck the willy warmer in his bag. When he got to his destination, he called to tell me his friends were admiring my craftsmanship and my talent for crocheting. I'd forgotten for a minute that I'd put that in his bag. I laughted when I remembered...Im sure Kev and his friends got a good laugh over it!!

Crocheted winter hat for Tristan

How cute does Tristan look in his new home made crocheted winter hat!!! Im so happy this fit him so well, and I hope he gets good use out of it this winter. I also made him a pair of mittens and Tristans Mom told me she'll get a picture of them too and send them my way.

This hat was so easy and I just love the ear flaps. Makes perfect sense, you want to keep your ears warm when your outside. I used Lion Brand Thick and Quick yarn. I got this pattern on the free pattern site for Lion Brand yarn. Check it out if your looking for a quick and easy childs hat pattern!!

Hat and Mitten set

This is a cute hat and mitten set. Pretty easy to make. Not sure the white is practical, but it is pretty :). I made these for a friend of mine who's going to be living in some cold weather soon. I hope she gets some good use out of them.
