I think this hat is very cute on.

Working on a hat, scarf and 2 sets of fingerless mitts. Its getting cold and requests are being made so being a soft touch.........

I am so hooked!

Takes a bit to load it is so worth it. knitting game


Edit: Game is now over hope they put it back up!.

Hop on the Bus Scarf

Pattern is on ravelry search for Hop on the bus Gus if the link does not work

Vest with tie

The vest with the fake tie is in a size 3 and made from Red Heart Designer sport. The pattern is from Crochet Today May/June 09. I have a hint if you make it and love French knots then dot it. I had a devil of a time making the back stitch stripes on the crocheted background. If you want the stripes use painters tape to get the lines straight. Maybe you have a better eye that I did. It looks good after I used the tape to get straight lines. I attempted the outline , chain stitch. The backstitch is all that really looked right.

Books I bought.

Be blinded with cuteness!!!!

The pattern


This sweater was made sometime ago.


The hat pattern is no longer available. The sweater is made from Bernat Chunky.

Neckpillow

I have been told I will have to sleep in a recliner for several days after my surgery. So I made myself a neck pillow. Girls it is divine...why have I not made one for myself before. neck pillow

Crocheted Star Quilt

worsted weight yarn
H hook

Quilt Diamond

row 1: Ch 2,sc in 2nd ch from hook Ch1 turn each row

row 2: 2 sc in sc .

row 3: Sc in first sc, 2 sc in last sc.

row 4: Sc in each of first 2 sc, 2 sc in last sc.

row 5: Sc in each sc to last sc, 2 sc in last sc. Repeat row 5 until there are 10 sc. Ch 1 turn.

row 11: Sk first sc, sc in each remaining sc. Ch1, turn. Repeat row 11 until 1
stitch remains End off, leave tail for sewing

When making the white or solid diamonds (6) around the star you don't have
to end off. It makes it easier to sew them around the star.

I made half blocks to fill in. The fill-ins were just to make it square

Happy Birthday Kids!!!!

Baby sweater and a Who Hat

The camera lied this hat is Christmas green and very very cute (my Who Hat)

The Who hat is really a candy corn hat pattern by Sarah Nopper. The pattern in on ravelry. I knitted more rnds between the decreases. Really I wish I could get a good picture of this hat. It is for Gus T. My grandson will be here Wed who who :)

The sweater is a kinder red my goofy camera and lighting. It is the Little Lamb from the Leisure Arts ( Precious Layettes to Knit) Now I did the yoke plain then went back and made french knots on the M1 on the yoke it was perfect spacing. I use size 8 needles instead of 10 so it looks newborn. The hat is the one I love from Janelle Schlossman. I miss her and her old site. The booties are the Saartje's Booties you can download this pattern from ravelry. My grandma's buttons. I love this set. It is for a dear friend's first grandchild. Well everything is except the Who Hat.

All Julie wanted was this elephant bib. So it is made with good cotton yarn.bib

The hat is the same as the hat pattern I made with the hex baby sweater.

Another Hex Sweater

I was ask to make this sweater and was given 1 sk of Bernat Jacquards. I used every inch and had to trim it in white.

The pics are of the birthday blankets. Ya's is not done yet (it will be) No's is the baseball, and baby boy's is the large crab one I just hemmed, and the cars for the car.

Mindless things

The hanging towels (8) were hemmed before she came and I just crocheted the tops. I am now on a mission to find buttons. The blanket is for the baby grandson. Gus T. (his net name) loves cars. I just blanket stitched around it then sc in the blanket st.. He loves elmo so he had to have a elmo hat

BIG project done.!!!!!!!

The big project is from Crochet Today July/Aug 09. It is really messed up. Check out their correction page if you make one. I don't think they have all the corrections up. I have been making toys for 38 years so I winged it some. This is for the baby grandson. His room is ocean theme. His Aunt painted really cute pictures for his room and one has a crab in it that will mirror his floor pillow. I put 4 huge sacks of poly-fil in. I may have stuffed it a little more than called for because it will flatten out. Never again.

Remember part 2

Remember this little sweater I knitted using Bernat Stripes. It is in the little Bernat Stripes Booklet.

Remember

Hat


I made the hat and mittens back in Jan for my baby grandson. I left one row off the hat . I wish I had left two rows off. Still pretty cute don't you think? The post about the hat was Jan.25,09.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DAD!!!!!!!!

Big Big Purse? Tote? Done

granny felted bag BAG link

The bag pics are not the best. They show the bag with a bag of stuffing in the bag (for size). I cut part of a place mat to sturdy up the bottom, but it can be removed for a soft bottom bag. The handles are very different and I placed them to make the bag expand if needed. I also put a button on the inside to close it up if you wanted. I think the pics do not do it justice.

The bag and pics and my changes are on my March 6/09 post.
