Trying to explain the use of golf club covers to my mom was an entertaining exercise: she thought it was a glove...for your hand, or that you used it to cover the handle before gripping, a la potholders...heh!
My sister asked for some for her 1, 3, 4, and 5 clubs (whatever they do) and since Xmas is coming... On the bright side, it took me only a day to whip this up (i.e., subway time + after dinner) using some of the purple wool yarn I bought in Shanghai 2 years ago, with some of the lavender Valuruguai eBay yarn for contract (the stripes indicate the # of the club inside).
I am trying to decide if I should (a) also sew on the number outside sing the Valuruguai and (b) add a pom-pom, a la the pattern I found on Wirghts.
Four words: bridesmaid dress from 1990. Now all I need are a tiara and a magic wand and I am all set for Halloween! (The good news about this monstrosity: I am now the same size I was 18 years ago!) At least (a) my cousin [the bride] is still happily married, and (b) I no longer have the perm I had in 1990. Yikes!
Yay! Stuff finally came back from the kiln last night! Lots of stuff as you can see, and my teacher's hip/apron area is shown for scalle. (Actually, it wasn't intentional, but that's how it worked out.) 
The haul: a jar (for my engineer), a gigantic mug (for me), 2 large tumblers (maybe an Xmas gift for his dad?), 2 coasters (one large enough for a wine bottle), a bowl/mug (which my mom has already snagged: it fit one of her plastic lids - heh), and a slightly warped but superthin bowl.
And now, off to book club to discuss The Tipping Point, which my friend Margaret was kind enough to give me years ago! Ha!
