Ewok Scoodie

I've made an Ewok Scoodie for Halloween!  I'm so excited and frankly, impressed that I made this, and it only took a couple of days  I used  the Yub Nub Scoodie pattern off of Ravelry.com.  I used Hobby Lobby's I Love This Chunky in the Spice color for the body and some random brown wool and brown eyelash yarns for the ears.  I found a leather cord in my jewelry making supplies for the laces up the front.  Now, it's not perfect - but you can't tell, and I'm not sharing any details. 




We don't really do Halloween at our house because we are both Scrooges and who needs all that candy sitting around.  But last year we bought Magnum an At-At costume - because why have a dog it you aren't going to dress them up for holidays.  I looked at Ewok costumes online and was

too cheap to buy one.  The Ravley pattern is free so I just had to spend a few dollars on two skeins of the yarn.  Tim has a cool light saber that he made so if we did Halloween we would have a really cool costume theme for the family. 

Giving Up Facebook

Because I don't have enough things to keep me busy, I've decided I want to try and write a novel - cozy mystery genre if you are interested. Writing takes a lot of practice so I made the big decision to get off Facebook.  If you are interested in keeping up with what I've got going on start following me here and not FB.  My goal for this rebirth of my blog is to share with you those things that keep me busy - reading, crocheting, scrapbooking, and other crafting - along with photos of the cats and dog, and maybe even some writings on random thoughts.  Thanks for playing along Ladies and Gentlemen.
