Stuff I'm knitting for others and misc.

For the Toy Society:

I have to say it was so much fun to do this, and I recommend you do it to! All you do (in a nutshell) is make a toy, drop a toy, and make someone's day! :] I dropped all three of my toys in a bathroom (in different stalls, of course). I know that's kind of gross, but the church was packed, and the only place that wasn't that crowded was the bathroom. And I couldn't just leave them by the sink because there was always someone there and I had to take a picture without raising suspicion... and what's more private than a bathroom stall? Well, a lot of things are more private than a bathroom stall, but you get the idea.

Here's a mix of stuff:

The brown blob in the corner is the beginning of a toy for my cousin Kevin.
The small hat is for the Bridge Project and Beyond.
The pair of (almost finished) mittens is for the Bridge Project and Beyond.
The ball of yarn near the bottom of the picture is for me!!! It's some yarn I recycled from a sweater. No, that's not all of it, that's just what I got from one of the sleeves. It's 100% Angora laceweight. It doesn't look like a lot of yarn, but believe me, there is a lot of yardage in that little ball of yarn. Trust me, I was the one unraveling the sleeve and winding it into a ball. I know.

P.S. I'm reading the yarn harlot's book, Knitting Rules! It's hilarious.
P.S.S. I know I already mentioned this in a previous post, but stay tuned for a project I'm planning that will involve you!
