Owl Bag Hiatus

I broke all my appropriately sized needles fixing a pair of pants, so I haven't been working on the owl bag.

If you ever feel like one butt cheek is consistently colder than the other, it's probably because the back of your pants have ripped.

Anyway, I did manage to fix the pants. Click on the various squares below if you want to see closer photos. It's not too interesting, but there it is.

Along with fixing the huge rip, I patched up another hole and reinforced the other weak spots.

While I was doing that, I came up with the idea to modify the jeans in a fun, non-functional way. I haven't gotten around to doing it yet, but here's the idea I sketched out.























I was inspired by an online flash doll with socks that looked somewhat like these heart knee socks. I had taken a screen shot of the doll, but unfortunately I can't find it. Flash dolls are kind of addictive, by the way.

I recently got some new needles. Hooray!
