Tiny Little Knitting

It feels like I have about a millon knit/crochet projects in the works, but I can't seem to be able to get anything done. So I started a whole new project. Sounds logical, right?
*
Mini Sweater Brooch
*
I made myself a little knitting-pride brooch. I used the mini sweater ornament pattern from Last Minute Knitted Gifts. I knitted it with black and white Lyric yarn and 2,5mm double point needles. It was sort of fun to make. But I have to admid that I really should build up my patience so I would enjoy tiny little projects with loads of yarn ends to weave in more.

Hey, did you know that the lovely Cass is in need of a bitch? Well I did, and I wanted to help her out. Sadly I couldn't be her bitch. I would make a bad bitch, since a)I live too far b)I'm lazy c)I talk back, and d)I don't take direction very well. But I felt the need to do something to show my support:
*
I Need A Bitch-cross stitch
*
I made her a cross stitch. My second ever cross stitch, and I altered a subversive cross stitch pattern a bit for it. And assuming that Cass is not just being nice, she really liked it! I'm happy.
