Out of order
Before I began Minni I was busy with other things I haven't shown you yet.
The finished slippers and mittens plus accessories. These brightened up some dull days!
And there was a lot of purple knitting for someone's 20th birthday. Mwah! I love you!
(Couldn't forget the birthday girl's kitty, now could I?)
The pretty purple shawlette is, of course, Citron knit up in Trekking hand art (Provence 555). I think I used the specified needle size but only worked four sections before the ruffle and made the ruffle wider.
Most of the hearts were crocheted (really!) as was the mousie. You can't make it out in the picture, but the hearts in the garland are separated by silver bead cubes that spell out i-love-you (awww).
Pleasant purple dreams to you all.

Love those colors! I have developed a great fondness for those blues and greens together lately. (Maybe it's subliminal from all that Olympic TV viewing - Vancouver colors.) And apparently Citron is the perfect kitty rug? :-)
Lovely birthday girl! Apparently she likes purple? Heehee.
Fabulous! Slippers and mittens and baskets and hearts!
Happy Happy to Your Girl's 20th bd! Love the MOM :^) and everything else, those purples are Lovely!
(went through the photostream, great photos.. the hearts lined up in the window sill and mmmmm, that bread is beautiful!)
crochet, eh?
xox
How lovely!
Mazal tov to the birthday girl. She is very lucky to have a talented mother like you, all the knitting creations are beautiful but those hearts oh, the hearts :)
