Knitting the Ornaments

Lately, I've been knitting...

...Christmas tree ornaments. Some have beads...

Well, most have beads. I spent a good hour on Sunday looking for a good place to photograph some of them. (I may list them in my shop, depending on whether or not I can get good pictures taken.)

Unfortunately, the light wasn't quite right. (Naturally, I had to knit an orange one.) But these pictures aren't that bad. I even made another archery target ornament...

I have about a dozen ornaments made now (give or take). If only I had a Christmas tree...

Oh, and I was a winner! Thanks, Assholes Watching Movies.

    The target one is obviously the favorite of the kitties in my house. But I like the colors in the first one, too. And congrats on winning :)

    I love these ornaments. I guess you can knit just about anything, can't you?

      I don't know about anything. There are some things that have no business being made out of yarn.

    I think you did well with the photos of them :) I like them all; if I had a tree I would maybe get a few :)

    Congrats on winning! We saw Inside Out the other weekend; it was cute :)

    Those are so precious. I have to share this with my mom. She loves to knit and make Christmas gifts/decorations.

      I first got the hankering to knit ornaments in 1999. It took a while to get back to it.
