Finished one of the jewelry pouches for Christmas. A really nice pattern by Crochet Dude that he has generously offered as a free pattern.

I finished the afghan I was making, the never ending wedding ripple and gave it to the recipient yesterday, but she hasn't opened it yet. It was two feet short of covering my king size bed so I hope it works for her. I am doing an afghan of green sensations boucle yarn for my daughter now, Scarf for my sisterin law, and the afghan for my graph afghan thread. I need to do a scarf for sister and an afghan for my grand daughter too. My goals may be too much for summer time. Afgans get hot to do., Oh the recipient for the afghan that i just did got another afghan for a wedding gift that she opened before she left for her honeymoon, soI guess I wasn't very imaginative, but mine is prettier, lol.

[ratdog]

Snap, Having two handmade afghans is NEVER a bad thing! I'm sure the afghan will be well recieved. I have multiple throws on the couch and in bedrooms!

 

I need to post pics of my finished projects. I promise to do it soon.

Yay you finished the ripple! Wasn't it never-ending? oh my goodness. haha. The recipients of the one I made liked it... saying that it does indeed get cold in Cali in the wintertime.

This hat wasn't on my to-do list, but I had the materials readily available, so I made it anyway. It's called the Retro Rings Tam Hat... a pattern I found on Ravelry. This isn't the best pictures to show it off, but oh well.

Back from Vacation!

 

I got the second layer of the second jewelry pouch done. Just have to sew them together and make the drawstring. I think I will fill them with candy rings and necklaces before I give them to my nieces at Christmas.

 

No progress on the preschool blanket because I am using my T-O-C hook and I REFUSE to take it out of the house!
