A little Christmas ornament :)

Feeling a bit under the weather today, or however the expression goes. Earlier I thought I was just hung over from yesterday's wine, but now I've got a sore throat and I'm a little dizzy.. Hope I'm not coming down with the flu or anything, I don't have time for that. I guess it's just the post-exam thing (*knock knock*), you know, because I've been so anxious about the exam the last days, and now it's all over and I'm relaxing again.

I have not began studying yet, as I should have done, instead I've made these cute little felt skates. You can find the pattern for them here :)





They should be a lot bigger, but I couldn't find the right kind of paper clips that size or color (they should be rounded and silver), so I had to shrink the pattern a lot to make them fit a regular size paper clip. They're so tiny (only 3cm tall!) I didn't even need stuffing, I just used about 5cm of white scrap yarn :) I really enjoyed making these, I realized that I miss making stuff of felt. I used to make lots of animals a few years ago, before I discovered knitting and crocheting, but now I haven't done it for ages. I want to make a pink pair of skates, and then maybe some other Christmas ornaments :)
