Day 158: Knitted hearts and some art fair evaluation

I haven't knitted anything for ages now so I thought of cleaning the cobwebs by knitting something easy and small, hence little hearts. I recently went to my first art fair as selling artist. Big step for me as I never dared to do that before and thanks to my 365 project I had some work to take. It all looked very nice but I was to stressed to remember to take a photo :).
I sold for £40, paid £25 for fees and spent the rest on lunch. But...I didn't make a loss, so happy with that. Small, inexpensive items are definitely a eay forward. Thinking of maybe trying a Christmas fair next. I should have enough stuff:)

Day 62: Large-ish Knitted Heart

As I knitted the small heart I saw a larger one so gave it a go but this one didn't really turn out that well. Might be something to do with stitch tension as the yarn I used was a bit similar but not quite right. I might have another go at this heart just to lean how to adapt yarn to pattern. It is a useful skill and one I have not mastered yet, i tend to stick to patterns with yarns I know I can get but it is limiting. So next step in my knitting adventure...
