Knitted Heart

Our friend and dormie Mary left school a week earlier than everyone else because of her sister's wedding, so I attempted to knit her a little heart as a goodbye gift.


It was my first try at this pattern, so it turned out a little funny, especially at the increase. Whatever, she appreciated it none the less.


I want to try the pattern again and see if I can get it a little nicer looking. I've seen some adorable mobiles made with knitted hearts that I would like to try and copy. We'll see.

Zebrafish

We had a really amazing HA (the equivalent of most school's RA) on our floor. He was a biology major and  did his thesis on zebrafish, so as  thank you, I knitted him one.



It's not totally biologically correct or anything, but I tried.


I think I'll make a lot of stuffed animals this summer since I feel less inspired to knit warm, cozy things when it's hot out.
