I decided last night would be the night to finish up the poncho and neckwarmer. Two more gifts done! Yea, me!
I thought Jessica should have a turn modeling the poncho (since she is patiently waiting for Mommy to make hers).
It's not the best photo, but you can definitely see the colors I chose for this one. I used just the variegated yarn for the fringe and I think that was a good choice. I cut the yarn for Amy's fringe individually and that's partly why I was taking so long to do the fringe for this one. I realized though, that wrapping the yarn around a DVD movie case (width-wise) would net the perfect length after cutting the hanks in half. That cut down the amount of time needed to get that fringe cut. Why I didn't think of it while doing Amy's I have no idea!
Both girls wanted to show off the neckwarmer, so enjoy my little models:
You can see how long this project is this way. It is sized for an adult of course. But aw heck, aren't they cute?
I feel pretty good that I am making some progress on my projects.
I've got lots of things I want to get done today, so I'll close for now. I'll be back if I manage to complete anything worth sharing.
Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a great day!

Wow! You sure are crafty! These are great gifts. My neck is always cold having short hair, so I know how much that will be loved. Great job!
