FO Friday: a squid and a crocheted necklace

Happy Friday! I spent most of my week preparing for the Pittsburgh Knit and Crochet Festival (where I am now, yay!), but I managed to finish two projects

Squid!

This squid was a custom order- and I’m quite proud!

He’s almost 2 feet long, and not at all gross and slimy like a real squid!

Crochet Necklace

I completed my first crochet-with-wire-and-beads project!

Do you like my necklace? I’m very excited about it… I’ve already worn it a few times this week!

Thanks for stopping by and reading! If you want to see more great finished items… make sure to visit Tami’s Amis blog, the organizer of this great FO Friday theme!

I hope you have a fantastic weekend!
