...9.29...W.I.P. Wednesday...

...so the day (evening really) before we were going to head back up to Mom's...I wanted to make a new scrunchie for my hair...it's getting pretty long and I wanted it up and out of the way for the construction work to come...so I got one of those strong rubberbands that come around kale and broccoli and such out of the drawer...and just some random pink yarn from the stash...
...and just did one row of single crochet around the rubberband and then a row of shell stitch...
...and decided that it would work...
...and then I also decided to make each of my small nieces a hair doodie of some sort...so I made a headband for the smallest one...and a couple of those little pop clips decorated with small flowers for the two sisters...and another scrunchie just like mine for the niece that stayed with us a few weeks ago...as she has nice long thick hair...
...and added a sweet little flower to the headband...I loved how it turned out...
...and for the only nephew...I cast on for a toboggan...thinking I could probably finish it during the evening at Mom's...
...and I thought a ring of skulls would be just the thing for decoration...so I just downloaded this simple cross stitch pattern for that...
...and by the end of the evening I had all the motifs done...
...and the next morning I finished up the decreases...
...cinched in the top...and wove in all the ends...I like the reverse image of the skulls here too...
...and it was a huge hit with the nephew...
...it fit him perfectly...and he loved it...

...what's in your workbasket this week?...

~Have a lovely day!
