Haiti auction items

Good news, everybody! [/Professor Farnsworth] I seem to have formatting and icons back on LJ! At least, they've been here for a few hours, so I'm optimistic that they're staying. :-D

Since I finally finished the last of my [livejournal.com profile] help_haiti commissions, I can post about them.

I raised US$85 (thanks to some kind bidders paying more than they actually bid) with the following (click to see full-size):


This necklace and earring set (the ones on the left)


These ninja mitts, at least ones in the same yarn


This scarf, knit to order


And this pic of blind Avon and seeing-eye wolf (for [livejournal.com profile] kalinda001, since many of you will have recognised the theme). :-)

I'd have bid for some items myself if I had a job, though the custom plushies would have been way out of range.

I suspect I'll make whatever is quickest & likely to appeal from amongst my ton'a stuff, just to use something up.

Amigurumi is one of the things I looked up on the net a while back & downloaded some free patterns/instructions. SO cute! I haven't tried it yet. I think for tiny toys crochet is better than knitting because of the added stiffness of the 'fabric.'
