Remember this one? I'm doing it again. (Um, if you commented last time and never got something from me, comment again and I won't count you in the "first three".) Stolen from ironychan this time.

PAY IT FORWARD: I will send a handmade gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment here on my LJ. The gift could be anything, but you will receive it within 365 days (probably sooner). The only thing you have to do in return is "pay it forward" by making a similar agreement on your livejournal.

Hey, guess what! I finally got off my butt and listed all the amigurumis I have sitting around over at my Etsy store! Go check it out! And tell your friends! You know . . . if you have friends with disposable income who like cute stuffed animals.

A while back, I posted a picture of a band I had knitted for my watch. I was pretty proud at the time, but unfortunately, it didn't last very long. That was only partly my fault--the clasp I used was very flimsy, and eventually broke. I spent quite a while tying it on with sad little strings of yarn, but not only was this annoying, but the yarn was beginning to get all nasty. (The yarn I used was not very durable, which I new at the outset.)

So, today, I bought materials and made myself a new band!

( And it isn't knit! )
