Very nice. I've made a bunch of dishcloths already too, but some of them are for myself.

I haven't got much done the last two days. I had to frog a bunch of the camo afghan (decided it wasn't long enough, and frogged it back to the middle to make it bigger). Over the halfway point now, so maybe it will go fast.

I had to frog about 6-8 rows on my baby blanket. I started working with the wrong size hook. I'm back where I was though.

It must have been a day to go to the frog pond:2frog I was working on the baby blanket AND watching the Giants game--well, let's just say I had to frog about 3 rows cause I was paying more attention to the game than to the

Now, having watched the game I can TOTALLY understand your having to go to the frog pond!

We'll be here, too:hug:hug:hug

Great cloths and scrubbies!!!

 

migraine headache sidelined me today...no crochet:eek but i have been working on the Plastic canvas doll house for my granddaughter. That seems to not aggrivate the migraine.

Hope you're feeling better!

Nice color! I'm still trying to decide if I want to join in!

Ummm, ok...I like the black and purple combo!Just can't quite picture the scarlet in there, but that's ok.

I had to frog a few rows on Juno's sweater yesterday too. Must be something in the air!

Its wonderful!

[Gardener]

I didn't finish that slipper, although I could have if I wasn't such a procrastinator. (Lucky thing I still have lots of time before next Christmas!)

[marpan79]

Thanks Ann, Linda, and Cindy

[Bailey4]

Still plugging away at my afghan, once more through the chart and I should be done.

 

I have the Star Wars ship patterns ordered and I bought the new Valentine's patterns from Crochet Village this weekend.

[bigfunfam]

The Valentine pack is cute! I almost ordered it, lol.

[imanurse55]

AWESOME Harley Ghan, Marisa!!

 

I've been plugging away at the baby blanket for my DD's friend as well as having a RR in the works---work is currently keeping me very busy and overwhelmed--so not as much crochet time as I'd like at the moment!!

[judianne]

Joanne....do theygive you much of a lunch hour, at least? Imgine....not having enough time to hook!?

[Gardener]

Joanne, is this business because of the new project, or are you still tying up ends from previous projects? Hope that things settle down for you soon.

[grannyannie]

Hi Gang! The class with Edie Eckman has been keeping me busy and also sidetracking me from all my projects that need to get done! I'll get that list made up sooner or later!

 

I didn't finish that slipper, although I could have if I wasn't such a procrastinator. (Lucky thing I still have lots of time before next Christmas!)

Well whoever you give it too could always wear it on one foot, then swap over to the other to warm that one up! Tell them they'll have the other one for the following Christmas!

 

Thanks Ann, Linda, and Cindy

You're so welcome! I attempted a graphghan once, umm, I didn't get very far before I was a tangeld mess! I give anyone that can make them a lot of credit! Especially when they come out as beautiful as yours!

Hope you can sneak in some quiet time for yourself!

The cross stitch pattern I tried was a flop. Will have to try a different one. It seems so much smaller than when I last worked on it. Yikes!

My first one was a bit tangled too, but then I learned a trick from someone here at the ville and it is great at keeping everything in order and preventing that mess from occuring. Just put all your skeins in a bin (I stand them up so that the end I'm pulling from is face up) and work with them from there. When you have to turn, put the ghan down on top of the bin, turn the bin, and pick it up backwards Works like a charm

Oh well, hopefully you find something better to work on

Mom introduced me to yarn bobbins and they have been such a blessing. I tried using one of the yarn sorter bins and it was not pretty. I have just one more go through the chart and the cat afghan is finally finished!!!!
