My Fuzzy Furry Steering Wheel is Famous!

I'm such a proud knitter. :)

A little over a year ago, I designed a fuzzy steering wheel cover for my car, because our summers here in the south get SO HOT! (It gets kinda cold in the winter too) I also wanted to find a use for all my skeins of furry eyelash yarn. Why did I buy so many skeins of that yarn?
Furry, Fuzzy Steering Wheel Cover

So, after making my wheel cover, and getting compliments everywhere I went, I thought, "Hmmm....maybe I should make a pattern for other knitters to use as well." So, I sat down at my computer, using my handwritten instructions as a guide, and made a nice looking document with the pattern instructions and a decent photo. I also published the design on my blog and website.

I had NO idea it would become a popular knitting pattern, but it did!

This month, my "Fuzzy Furry Steering Wheel Cover" is being featured on Fiber Femmes:

New Year's Resolution 2007

I have never made a New Year's Resolution in my life. But this year, I am.

I resolve to exercise, and eat nutritious food.

I've written all about it in one of my other blogs:
