Chemistry Flask

Since this year I'm taking Chemistry i figured I'd make a Earl Lenmayer Flask for my professor.  This only took me an hour to design, and make, which in all honesty is fairly quick for me. What do you think?  The pattern will be posted soon!

Grandma Joan's Mittens

I was recently asked to make a pair of mittens for my boyfriend's grandmother.  Although winter is almost over, theres still a few weeks left, especially if it keeps snowing like it did today.  Balancing school, homework, and errands i managed to complete these in about 3 days.
