Sewing, sewing, and some knitting....

So I haven't been updating a lot, but I have been being rather crafty:D
I am still addicted to knitting, but I have been doing a lot of sewing. I can't share all of it right now but will when I am all done;)
Anika is still staying crafty as well, she is still knitting some, although she doesn't like to do it for very long, it only holds her attention for a bit. She has started to learn some basic stitches for hand stitching/embroidery. She can do shorter projects and it holds her attention longer.
I am working on a knitted stocking cap for Nathaniel. He keeps begging me to get done with it... but I am still learning a lot of the techniques:O I am knitting it in the round with circular needles. The ones I bought were too big for the basic circular method, so I am using a method called "magic loop". I love it! Basically I can buy less sizes of circular needles because I don't really have to worry about the length of the cable:D I am starting the decrease right, hopefully I will have it done in a week or two.
Since I am still full into knitting, yet sewing almost daily, I decided to whip up a little needle case. It was fast, easy and cost about $4 to make, and I have some of the fabric left over for another project! I used a basic template I found online, but changed the way I did the tie, because I didn't want to have to stitch in the middle of the bag.

Oh and the best thing to knit, especially for a beginner.... I love these I have already made a few and have more yarn sitting around just for then:D
