Spider-Man (Miles Morales) Inspired Convertible Beanie

The Miles Morales version of Spider-Man...

I made this beanie over a month ago, just didn't get around to posting the photos on this blog until now.  This is just another version of the Spider-Man Inspired Convertible Beanie I made here. Yes, you can see through the eye mask as  well.

The Hulk Beanie

 
I made this beanie back in late November (2013). I never got around to taking decent photos though. I made it for a "Superhero/Villain" themed party that my sisters and I "hosted" (inside joke). LOL. My sister, Peejay, was The Hulk. My other sister, Phoebe was Spider-Man. I, of course, was Loki. Duh.

I actually went back and forth between being Loki and Thor, much like my personality... Good v. Evil. :)

Toadette Beanie

Another "girly" beanie! I made this Toadette Beanie for one of my closest friends (more like a sister), Lyssa. This is actually a very late Christmas present. She had requested that I make her this beanie over a year ago, and of course, because I am the Queen of Procrastination, I only got around to making it now.

I made this beanie using a combination of knitting and crocheting. Originally, I was going to attach the (ball) pigtails to the beanie, but my sister, Phoebe, pointed out that Lyssa may have only wanted a Toadette inspired beanie (just the pink with the white spots), and not an actual Toadette-looking headpiece. Since this was to be a gift, I couldn't really ask Lyssa without giving the surprise away, so I decided to make the pigtails detachable. That way, it can be worn as a plain beanie/beret, or it can be worn as a whole piece- pigtails and all!

 

I have yet to give this to her, but I am too happy with the end results, and way too excited that I have the need to post the pictures. Since I do no think that she reads my blog, I figured it was safe to post here first. I'll post it on the other social media platforms after I give it to her. I hope she likes it. :)

P.S. - Photos were taken by my sister, Phoebe. Thank you! :)

Owl Beanie

Apparently I do not make enough "girly" beanies. Honestly, I don't know why... Is this "girly" enough? LOL.

Owl Beanie

 This beanie was commissioned by a friend... It was to be a Christmas gift for his cousin. If it were up to me, I would have probably added more details but this is how he wanted it. I still like it though... I just wish I took better (and more) pictures, but I was crunched for time.

My friend had also requested another beanie, but I don't know... I am not entirely happy with the end result so I don't really want to post it yet. Everyone else loved it but I don't... I am in the process of making it better, so once that's done I will post it. :)

On a sort of different note, my etsy shop is going through changes right now. I hope to have it fully operational in 2 weeks. I am still taking custom orders though, in case anyone is wondering. In the meantime, you can browse through here:

If you see anything you like, just shoot me a message (preferably via etsy).

I also hope to be able to sell more "girly" items. I am currently working on a project right now... It's pretty "girly." :)

Knitted Fingerless Gloves (Magic Loop Method)

  

Needle Size: US 6 (4 mm) Addi Turbo Circular Needles (29 inches)

Yarn Weight: Worsted / 10 ply ( 9 wpi )

This was knitted using the Magic Loop Method, which I prefer over double pointed needles any day. I was originally knitting gloves for the husband, but it was too small, so now they are mine. :)

I actually finished this last week, but I never got around to taking pictures. This project took me longer than planned due to my friend, procrastination, visiting. But if I really focused, I could definitely knit a pair of gloves in a couple of hours. Right now, in addition to other projects and orders, I am currently working on another pair for him. Hopefully, going up a needle size would work fit/size-wise. We shall see, I guess...

Thor Beanie (Knit and Crochet)

 

I actually started (and almost finished) this around the time I made the Loki Beanie. But before I could sew the wings on to the beanie, I misplaced the beanie. Seeing the Thor 2 movie trailer, I was motivated to work on this project again, and I decided to just start from scratch. The beanie and the wings were inspired by/based on several photos I've seen on the internet.

The beanie was knitted, using a light (heather) gray yarn. The "silver" yarn I found was just not thick enough to my liking. I crocheted the wings using white yarn, and hand sewn it to the beanie.

(Sorry for the low quality photos. I was too lazy -and too excited- to take decent ones...)

Thor v. Loki? I have a soft spot for "bad" boys, so Team Loki all the way! (Also, because I find Tom Hiddleston hot!)

UPDATE: November 06, 2013

The Thor and Loki beanies are now available for sale at www.charmed.etsy.com. :)

We got spirit. Yes, we do!

My co-worker ordered these beanies from me. They were inspired by the University of New Hampshire's Wildcat mascot. I used the school colors, which are gray and blue, and put cat ears on them. She gave them as Christmas gifts to a couple of people who attend the school. According to her, they loved the beanies. :)

Maybe I should make more animal inspired beanies...?  Maybe, but right now I am currently working on another project. I am super excited about this... Hopefully, it'll turn out the way I want it to..

Spider-Man Convertible Beanie

I actually made this beanie about a month ago for my sister. She was attending one of her best friends' son's birthday party, and she wore this as her costume. I was too busy with holiday orders so I couldn't really make this available in my online store until now...

And yes, you can see through the eye mask. :)

And I know I should have taken the pictures with my camera instead of my phone but I got lazy. :/

Maybe in a couple of days...

Loki Beanie

After watching Thor, I had fallen in love with Tom Hiddleston's Loki. Then, after falling in love with him some more in The Avengers, I have been inspired to make a Loki beanie. Unfortunately, due to lack of time, I couldn't really work on it until the last few days. After much trial and error (with the horns), this is my finished product.

I looked up images of Loki online and found various versions of his headpiece. This is the one I chose to make. I could've made the whole thing gold including the beanie part, but I thought that would just look too blah. I chose not to make the horns too long because I wanted the beanie to be wearable. :)
