Keep Calm Craft On {crafting on}

The act of creating, in one form or another, preserves my sanity amongst the chaos of life. This explains why I always have more than one project going at a time as well as why my housework tends to fall behind. I enjoy seeing what others are working on and keeping calm with, too. What are you creating? What is keeping you going? Snap a picture or two and share it with the rest of us by leaving your link below.

Long story short - I don't have a current work in progress to share due to technical difficulties. Instead I thought I would share my finished package for the Martinmas swap I am in. I already mailed out the little lantern children and wool acorn necklaces to the swap coordinator and now I my children and I wait with great anticipation to see what beautiful handmade goodies we get in return.

p.s. - lantern children pattern and details here.

What are you working on? Happy creating!

The lantern children are just so sweet! I love their little felt lanterns. Did you make them from a pattern or just make it up along the way?

I modified them from the pattern I linked to above. I just knit them in the round and did a couple other little things. http://ravel.me/FrontierDreams/lc2

Those are so adorable! What a great idea the swop is. Whoever receives your lantern children and those acorn necklaces will be over the moon! I rather fancy an acorn ne knack myself!
