I'm very hapy with the participation. =)!!

I'm almost finished with mine! I've been working on it hard the past few days. I've just got to finish making the gold coins for the pot of gold.
Everything on and the hat itself is crocheted, so i'm pretty proud of myself. 3nodding

@Mnemosyne- Even if you don't finish it, you can still post what you've done so far.

@Jain- I had the same trouble. I typed in St. Patty's day patterns in google and found a pattern for a hat and tweaked it a bit and decorated it with things. I've got a few more things to put on it still though.

I am still leaning toward a beer coozy since that would also be something I could actually use. I think I'm going to start it in a few days when I finish my ami bunny.

Lol, I'm making a hooded sweater for my mom's peekaboo doll. All that's left is the front pocket and embroidery. How should I send my entry?
