Do you still have some old rick rack? Then you can download an old book with crochet, tatting and sewing patterns using rick rack braid.
Fortunately I don’t have any, so I’m not led into temptation ;-))

I find the Lakota Chain necklace really cute, but I didn’t find the time yet to try it out.
Well, one day ;-)
The day before yesterday I told you that I was looking for online pattern generators and then I found also the toga pattern generator.
What an idea! ;-))
In any case I thought that Carnival (Fasching) is really near now and possibly the newspaper dress doesn’t suit you, then such a toga could be an alternative?! ;-))

Still got some plastic bottles? ;-)
Then try to make some earrings or a simple yet striking necklace!

I’m busy programming another pattern generator, something similar to the maze pattern generator and the pattern generator (cellular automaton) and therefore I looked for online pattern generators.
So I found the online Amigurumi pattern generator.
Incredible!
I’m really not one for Amigurumis, but I find the generator amazing! ;-))

That’s a cute vase that you can give away on Valentine’s Day, too, isn’t it?
If you don’t like it try one of the other vases here ;-)
I really like the paper flowers.

Still have some old sweaters? Make such a boot from them!
Another great idea, isn’t it? :)
As good as the Sweater Scarf and the yarn from sweaters ;-)
And if you don’t have a sweater to recycle, take t-shirts ;-))

I really like this little purse!
The content she put into the little purse isn’t meant for children but no one will press-gang you to pack the same things ;-)
You can find a scan of her template a little bit down the entry, with this you can make your own little paper purse – as gift wrap or for daily use is completely up to you ;-))

I already presented this technique, although using wax and the chocolate was only mentioned in a comment.
Now you can really see such a chocolate bowl – looks great, doesn’t it?

Need a quick gift for a good friend?
What about tis nice beaded Valentine Day heart?
I don’t give away anything for Valentine’s Day but I will surely find an occasion on which to bead the heart for someone I really like :)
Though I hover a little between this rather elegant Valentine Day heart and the freeform heart pendant.
I guess that it will depend on the future recipient ;-)
