So today's challenge is a photography challenge, I thought yay, pretty easy...I take tons of photos and love to have fun with them..........apparently I lied to myself! I got nothing, nothing I tell you! Ok I do have pictures, but clever...hardly. So I will go with some start to finish shots, I even got a bit fancy with the bunny ones!
I dyed the yarn with Kool-Aid, pink lemonade and lemonade to be exact for a prettyish pink/yellow combo. You can see in the top picture I have added the kool-aid to the yarn in the crock pot, about an hour later the draining and rinsing stage and the laid out neatly on a towel getting ready to hang for drying and at last the finished product! A bunny for Brooke!

Next up just some pictures at home, I have a lovely collection of knitting needles and not a clue how to use them, but they look nice on the bookshelf where I keep some of my yarn!

A quick picture of Katlyn's striped scarf on Sunday morning, rolled up it's much easier to work with, especially with a crazy puppy running around!

| third time around for the colors |
This last picture is just a large vase I have hanging about for collecting the bits and pieces I cut off after the weaving in, pretty colors to look and and functional when a need for stuffing small items arises!

I love your photos! That martian hat is to die for. Taking a photo of your sketch was a great idea.
I have a couple mismatched pairs of colorful antique knitting needles that I put in vases on a hall side table. They look great there.
Love the hat!
Great to see you at Quintonwench today!
Great hat....I've never really designed anything myself, I don't think I would have the know-how of where to start. I love your jar of bits and a good idea for stuffing too!
The hat is amazing! I love it :D
Love the hat and the picture of needles in jars with the yarn
