Family in Town

I have a busy few weeks coming up and still haven't had time to take pics of all I've been crocheting but I have a couple that I can go ahead and post for now til I have time to take good ones with my real camera.

This is a little backpack I made for my two year old daughter who is constantly trying to wear her big brothers backpack around the house. I made it up as I went along but plan to write my first pattern with it because it turned out really cute. Just have some changes to make to get it just right. 

I made these for a family friend as a quick gift. I used a free pattern that I found on ravelry. They worked up super fast. The pattern calls for color changes every row but I just used three colors and carried them up the inside.

This is the hat I made the other day an I did a basic double crochet scarf to go with it. 

And last one I have is a braided headband. The link for this pattern is: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/outfitters-braided-headband

It's done in Tunisian crochet which is still new for me and was a great beginner project for it.

So this is what I have for now. I bought a manican head at michael's to take better pictures of hats and can't wait to finally use it. My baby brother is here visiting from Alaska so I'm off to go spend time with him. Hope everyone is having an awesome weekend!
