I have been doing quite a bit of knitting lately. You might remember from my last post that I knitted some washcloths for an Elfster gift exchange. As I was getting ready to mail the cloths I decided that the package needed a bit more. (I'm really hoping my gift exchange buddy isn't reading this. If you are, please stop here. Spoilers!)
I had a small ball of Malabrigio left over from this project that I wanted to use. What can you do with a very small amount of incredible yarn? Make a bookmark! I scoured Ravelry for some bookmark patterns, there are a lot, and found the perfect one. I used this pattern and added a tassel to it. What do you think? I hope she likes it.
Again, as I was packaging the cloths and now bookmark I decided that it needed a bit more. Last night I got out my card making supplies and make up some cards. I think they turned out pretty well considering I haven't really made any cards since making my wedding invitations over seven years ago.
Now I am officially done with the gift and am ready to put it in the mail tomorrow!
