My friends birthday is this weekend and since I'm jobless and broke I can't really afford to buy her anything. I found some leftover black and white yarn and decided to knit her a cat that looked like her own kitty Rufus. Thankfully she is the type that loves and appreciates home made gifts!
Here is mini Rufus

Awww, he's adorable! Laura, I was hoping you weren't hit by the Starbucks layoffs. Sorry to hear you are jobless, kiddo!
That is so cute!! I'll pay you to knit a few little huskies....;) :D
I can't believe someone can do that- that is sooo cute. Anybody would prefer a gift like that to a bought thing.:)
He is adorable! What a great idea, and I am sure your friend will love him.
I'm very sorry to hear your job news.
That is so cool! I would love a gift like that, that's the kind I would appreciate too! That's excellent.
Well, I for one, would LOVE that gift! :love: So cute.
Homemade gifts are the best. Your love shines through. :)
That is priceless! What a lovely idea for a gift from the :love:!
That is so adorable! I love the little heart nose. :D I'm sure your friend will love it too. :)
I would love to have the skills to make things like that!
Would my life be happier if i was a bit creative!!!:):):)
How CUTE!
Could you knit a few more critters and share a cheap table rental with a friend at a flea market or something?
You could at least make a few dollars. AND second hand shops often get donations of yarn, and might even give some away if you tell them what is happening.
Your friend will LOVE it! Hope we get pics of Rufus's reaction.:)
:eek: WoW thats so Cute.. Oh your friend will love it.. Hey you may have something there.. Try selling in the market..
Dude, homemade gifts are always the best :love: That is totally cute! I think your friend will love it. :)

My sister keeps trying to convince me to sell my knitted items on etsy and I have thought about it. The main problem is that knitting is time consuming, so if I sold my items at what I thought would be a fair price I'd only be making about $1-$2 an hour not including the cost of yarn. For a hobby I love to hand dye yarns, that would actually be profitable so I am really considering setting up a shop on etsy with my hand dyed yarns.
The good news is that I have an interview tomorrow! I know that if I get it I won't be making as much as my previous job, but I'll have some income and can afford to buy yarn to dye and sell. I would love it if I could make some extra money selling yarn.
