Not Knitting

Today I tried needle felting! I got a kit when I went to NW Needlemarket with the ladies that own Cashmere Cottage Yarn. They asked me to make a sample because I thought we needed the kits. I finally did it and I think they turned out great :)

It was a lot easier than I thought it would be. I'm not sure what I was expecting... The directions are really clear.

The kits are Woolpets and they come in Chinese food boxes.

The kits have enough roving to make at least 2 of the pet in it. All I need are a few inches of pipe cleaners and I can make more of these guys. I'm thinking of using it to make something different, though. We shall see.
Now I'm going to try and make chickpea burgers by mixing hummas with rice. Then I will get back to knitting.

Adorable! I bumped over here from Ravelry (where I was looking through the Aslan Trends Santa Fe projects; love the little bubble hat!) and saw these owls. Too wonderful. Were they seriously easy to make? They are listed as intermediate on the yarn.com website. The penguin is shown as easy. Love them!
