Planning my next project

My next project has been on my mind for only a day or two, and I'm happy to say I'm going to make it happen soon!

I found this great idea while scanning the interwebs for patterns:

That's right! A pincushion jar. The image as well as the original idea is from THIS website.

Only, I have been thinking of adding a special effect to it by sticking an octopus or a mushroom on to the top, instead of just a sphere.

THIS is the website for the octopus pattern, and HERE is another, probably identical pattern

And right HERE is the link for the famous Mario Brothers Mushroom.

Perhaps I'll make one of each! 

Knowing me, I won't stick to the pattern...

The wool I have chosen for this project is Elle's Timber. I have three colors (Left to Right) 401 Fir, 411 Jacaranda and 402 Cedar. 100% Acrylic.

I decided on colorful yarn because my beloved granny isn't too fond of me always using the dull colors. =]
