Crocheting: Learning the Basics - Tech Cozy Project

Well, now that I have become comfortable with my single and double crocheting skills I decided to move forward in my class. The next step was our first project - the Tech Cozy. I decided that I didn't need a tech cozy since my Kindle already had a case (and I had other ideas for it) so, I went ahead and turned mine into a cozy for my sunglasses.

I don't know about you, but I am constantly misplacing my sunglasses. Sometimes even multiple times in one day! So, with the cozy I hope to be able to make them easier to find as well as clean. Madison just LOVES to play with them and put little smudgy fingerprints all over them. This is where the cozy comes in! It will make it easy to wipe those fingerprints off before I even put them on! :)

I found this tutorial in the class very easy. The steps were easy to follow and the project is easy to adjust to any object that you want to conceal in it. As Linda Howell suggested, I will be making these for gifts and I'm sure they will make their appearance on my etsy site as well! They are just too cute to not share!

Here is the first pictures of my little cozy (and yes, I need to get some more colors for my projects!).

Baby Barefoot Sandals

Yesterday I took my first stab at a pair of baby barefoot sandals! I crocheted them using a white yarn with a little sparkly string in them. They came out super cute! I made them to fit my youngest (Sienna) who is now 3 months old. I decided to put a little crocheted simple flower on the top of them to add to the cuteness!


It was pretty hard to get a picture of Sienna wearing them, since she loves to kick her feet. I'll try to get a better picture later. 

My oldest (Madison) who is almost 2 also wanted to wear them. So, I put the teal pair on here. She thought they were super fun! Since they were made for a 0-3 month old, they didn't quite make it around her leg like they did for her sister. But they still came out super cute! 

I will be making a bunch of these to put up on my etsy site for sure! :)
