Go Irish!

First Post and Project

Well, it's my first post and project. An ipod cozy done on the small blue round KK loom from the pattern listed on the provocraft website. I just editted it to my needs - made it longer then folded it over for a cover. The eyes were added by sewing on two white buttons and then using superglue to secure the googly eyes. Yarn was Lion Brand Wool Ease.

I plan to make a few more of these as holiday gifts for my friends - hopefully they will be better. XD
