My latest project (and cancer hats too)

So my latest project was for a swap that I am in on swap-bot.com

It was called give and recieve the theory was that someone would send me something (whatever they wanted) and I would have to make something out of it. Well I sent yarn and buttons and got back the CUTEST stuffed horse with buttone for eyes and yarn for a mane and tail...
And I was sent fabric! Yeah what do I do with fabric? I cut it into strips and am making a rag rug. There is no sewing involved (well since I can't sew I really think that the no sewing was important - though someday Erin if you like sewing again will you teach me?) The rug is crocheted and is pretty easy though time consuming and it hurts my hands to make. When it's done I will post a picture for you all to see...


And as for cancer hats while I was at MGH yesterday (national cancer survivors day FYI) I learned that last year the cancer trees were taken down the earliest they have ever been taken down because there was less hats donated than any other year. So I am renewed in my efforts to make tons and tons of hats... When I finish I will take a picture of the mountain of hats I am sure it will be!

Have a great weekend everyone!

You need to post a picture of the yarn horse!

I'm glad your enthusiasm for the hats is renewed.
