I have been crafting up a storm lately. We've been doing some road trips, so I've been making all sorts of smallish items in the car while Asa drives. I've also been trying to use up scraps of yarn that I have taking up space in the yarn basket.

These little booties were made with leftover yarn from a baby blanket from last year. I saw the pattern for these cuties on
Ravelry and knew right away that I would be making them soon. They were quite quick and are very cute. They don't require much yarn and many color combos are possible...and very likely! I still need to pick up some buttons to match the green or blue/purple yarn...once they have buttons, the tabs will cross over and fasten in a criss cross.
I made these little flowers on our road trip up to NH for a wedding. I didn't have anything to wear in my hair so I made two crochet hair clips on the way. They came out very cute, and I got many compliments on them. Asa was kind enough to wear one and show off my handy work for everyone to see.

| newborn frogs ~ tadpoles? |
These two newborn froggy hats aren't made entirely with scraps; I bought the soft green yarn special for this hat. But, their eyes are made using some scrap yarn. This is the first knit character hat pattern that I've worked and I'm happy with how it turned out. Grace saw me making them and she is really hoping I make one that will fit her head.
Loved the flower and it was a hit! Those frogs are really cute too.
