Oasis Photography Props

After I had armed knitted a cowl, my sister saw it and thought it would make a great photography prop to add to her collection in her photography studio. So she asked me to make her two, one in blue-green & one in black-grey. These are super fun to make and take no time at all. (Maybe 10-15 minutes total each).

Arm knitting is so easy & is instant gratification! I used Frill Seeker Oasis to arm knit as it’s already super thick and is actually a scarf yarn meant for another purpose, but it works great for this type of project. These props are 4 skeins of Oasis each, as there are only about 5 yards in each Oasis skein.

Aren’t the babies so sweet? It almost makes me want another!

Halloween 2014

Boys2014

Hope you all had a Happy Halloween! My Thor, Mario & Batman sure did. They were pleased with the candies they got and it was actually a very mild Montreal Halloween this year. Did you go Trick or Treating? What did your kids dress up as this year?

Quentin wanted to be Spiderman for school and Mario for trick-or-treating. Lucky kid has a wardrobe of costumes to pick from, as he has 2 older brothers with lots of hand-me-down costumes! I just want to eat him up, he’s soooo cute!
