A close-fitting, knitted o sewing cap that covers the head, neck, and tops of the shoulders, worn especially by mountain climbers, soldiers, skiers, etc. I found this free pattern in last night online for a fleece balaclava. I made one this morning in about an hour. Material: fleece. With fleece being soft and warm, it has become a fabric many want to have as a hat. There are many colors of fleece fabrics available.

Flurries Snow Showers Blizzard This is a quick project, and is very practical with many options of how to wear it. You need 3/4 of a yard of fleece. You will also need a nice boot lace, a piece of parachord or some such for the hood tie. The three pieces needed are easy to draft off a rectangle, and you don’t have to be precise, close will do.
Here is my low tech drawing of the pieces you’ll need. For the hood you need a rectangle 15″ X 13″. For the scarf piece you need a rectangle that is 11″X13″, placed on the fold. The neck cover is a little more tricky, but again, this doesn’t need to be exact!! It will look something like this from the bottom. Category: Hacks. When my older son discovered his first wiggly tooth, I realized that I had the chance to define the Tooth Fairy experience for another generation. As I pondered how the Tooth Fairy would collect our family's teeth, it occurred to me that she has an awful lot of teeth to gather, especially considering the ever-rising world population.
It seemed prudent to figure out a way to send the teeth to her for processing, rather than make her visit the homes of all 7,103,000,000 people on Earth. As such, I installed a pneumatic transport system (as at the bank drive-through) in my house, for the purpose of sending teeth to the Tooth Fairy, and receiving renumeration back from her. The Raspberry Pi serves up an interface that I built using Hype, which allowed me to quickly animate the movement of the capsule on the map and the spinning tooth on the "Under Review" page.

I highly recommend sewing a lining in the intimate zone for more protection. Happy sewing!! The Stylish Outfits This Woman Makes Out Of Secondhand Clothes Are Incredible. DIY paper clip earrings | withonehandwavingfree. Recently I felt myself falling into sort of a creative rut. I took a little break from crafting and began perusing my favorite blogs as well as the always inspiring craftgawker. During my ventures, I stumbled upon a bunch of really fun new DIY projects, one of which I had to try right away -paper clip earrings.
I love when I already have all of the materials required to complete a project. Anyway, after finishing one pair I was hooked.
