After working on the beading of this for about a week, yesterday I was able to sit down and finish it up
Like the teal and chocolate one I did a while back, this cuff bracelet is all glass beads -- grapetini and pink lemonade bead mixes mostly
I decided on this one to use a muslin backing, and frankly, I don't like it as well as the pelon, so I won't do that again unless I run out of pelon!
and the finished critter de jour is wearing purple too
Stella the alpaca sheep -- ok, now you know why each and every one of these MUST have a hand knit WOOL sweater vest -- its that whole IDENTITY CRISIS issue otherwise and there's nothing more ornery that a pissed off sheep
and then there were these lovelies
#4 in the series of MITTNZ -- wow, that means I'm now half way to the goal on these -- and so far, purely painless!!
today's excursions include putting eyes and wings on dodo birds, and beginning a new piece of jewelery which is entirely an experiment -- this should be fun!

Pretty mittnz - what yarn did you use for those?
I've pulled out a couple of patterns to try for my go at mittnz, and have decided to do bumble bee stripes for the first pair. Should be fun!
those were some scrap pieces I had on hand -- got to "go bold" with the combos sometimes!
