Happy Birthday to Me!

It's my birthday! Which means that I'm officially 19 now! I got loads of cool presents! All I asked for was a Rubik's cube, because mine was rubbish... I got one... For blondes... With all sides in pink... Thanks...
And I got a badger!!! I called him Charlie! I just had to!
I also got a "TARDIS handbook", a fan with bulls on it, a Hello Kitty plush, a TARDIS mug with a lid! A little purse which says "I ♥ HELLO KITTY", and I got volume 10 and 11 of D-Grey Man! Did I mention the badger?
I'm waiting for my parent's present, which is a Motorola FlipOut, and we'll see what else is gonna come...
I also got one present in advance last sunday. My older sister gave me a bag where my laptop AND my school-stuff all fit in! =)
I took the Nyan Cat Scarf with me to a convention yesterday. People were amazed, but noone dared to ask me where I'd got it from... Well one thing I know for sure: I'm gonna earn a lot of money when I'll sell my crochet stuff there next year!

The Phone-booth CD-thing is from my mom!

I wear a fez now, fezzes are cool!

So here you have the pattern for the fez. Please note, that the pattern I used for my fez is another one, but my fez is too small and too high, so I changed the pattern. I haven't tried this one, but I hope it's better.

By the way, I have a little something to tell you. I have put all the patterns that I had, that were not in a testing phase anymore, online... Which basically means, you'll have to wait a little while untill the next pattern comes. Anyway I'm busy scanning photos this weekend... Please don't be mad at me... I'll try to put another pattern online, as soon as I've had the occasion to try it. =)
