NCC, FO & DTW

NCC=No Computer Carrie
This is Lara's new nickname for me since I've been lap-topless. I'm still waiting patiently for it to be finished. Last I checked, repair was still in progress. I must say it's been refeshing not having a computer at arms reach at all times. I like to think I've actually gotten some things accomplished. Not only that but Casey & I have been on walks almost every day since it's been gone, something we should have been doing before NCC and something we'll continue to do when mr. laptop returns.

FO=Finished Object
I finished my very own ice cream pint cozy from KnitWit. It's made just as the pattern is written except I added two rows into the body so it fits up to the rim of the pint. I used Cascade Fixation as reccomended. I posed it here with the new Gobfather ice cream by Ben & Jerry's. Not as good as my favorite but it's in my top 10. Of course after the photo shoot, the ice cream was devoured.

DTW=Duct Tape Wallet
My latest craft adventure is duct tape wallets. Again, I'm following Lara's route. Go check out the awesome purse she made with duct tape! I can't take credit for this design since all I did was copy a wallet I bought last year (is that legal?). A super fun and quick project and with all the colors of duct tape these days the possibilities are endless!
***Update*** To clear up any confusion, I am not making these wallets to sell.

Hey Carrie,

It is awesome you got the duct tape bug! But it is illegal to create and sell copies of others copyrighted work. Keep on tapin.
