Summer Projects

I've been meaning to create this post for a while now, where I share all my summer projects with you! During the holidays, I was always busy making things, so here are a few of the items that I created!

So during the holidays, I bought myself a crochet hook. I already knew how to crochet, but never had the needle to do it. As soon as I bought one, I made myself two wooly hats using my own pattern. 



I also found an online tutorial for cable knitting, so I knitted myself a hat aswell!


The next item that I made, is a pencil case. I made this near the end of the holidays, and I now use it for school. Plus, it's in the shape of a cat; who doesn't love cats?


The more I knitted, the more I wanted to learn about knitting! I found a tutorial for what I like to call the 'raspberry stitch'. Using this stitch, I made myself some boot cuffs!


I also spent a fair bit of my time designing and making bags. The first bag I made used a cute, sweetie print fabric, and was a casual, slouchy bag. I like to use this bag when I don't have much to carry, but still want an exciting accessory!


The second bag I made is a satchel style bag. I use this for my school bag as it can carry lots, and is very sturdy. It has a zip pocket inserted into the lining, and two small pockets on the front. I also made the strap waist-length, so that I can easily access the things inside the bag!



Those are just a few of the projects that I made this summer, but if you want to see any more, or would like a tutorial for any of them, email me at lizzie.10max@gmail.com
