To Encourage Everyone in Making Gifts for 2018

[Tampa Doll]

Ellie the elephant is done.  I am now on to the Panda Afghan.

Here is Ellie where I got the pattern from LoveCrochet.  This pattern is called Tons of Love Elephant.

Not only is the elephant adorable but now you have me hooked on another pattern website.  I'd never been there before but already have patterns stored.  Wow.

[Bailey4]

I have the blanket and the hat done for the Leprechaun Lovey.  Hoping to finish him soon.  I ordered yarn to make an Irish Bear bib.  Hey it will be green and I've been dying to make the bear bib for her.  I also am looking at a bear leprechaun pattern.  May end up combining patterns.  Not sure yet.

Still working on dishcloths.  Hoping to get them all away soon.

[Tampa Doll]

I love the pot holder.

Yeah all is well and I let her know.

I am glad all is well now and it should be easier to check.

Off to make dinner.

[Gardener]

That chick potholder is super cute!

[richsgirl]

Nice dishcloth and elephant! I don't get to crochet long enough for my hands to get tired lol.

[Bailey4]

Still working on dishcloths and pot holders to send out.  Started one from an old Annie's publication last night and it's different from anything I've done before.

Today's post continues the cat theme

Fat Tabby Pot Holder

[greyhoundgrandma]

Another cute one, Bailey!

[Apak]

What a cute elephant, Mary Jo! 

And the potholders are great, Bailey4! 

 

Do you remember Crochet Games of Ancient Greece here on the Crochetville? It was such a fun. I thought of it today as the Winter Olympics has started and  I'm a big fan of winter sports 

 

[Bailey4]

That's what got me started on play food again this year.  I made a whole box of it to donate as my Olympic challenge one year.

[Bailey4]

Good morning all,

I finally got pictures done and this one up and posted yesterday.  I'm working on a thread potholder to go out with it and then I really need to get the St. Patrick's day box finished so I can get it mailed.

Yellow Rose of Texas Potholder

[greyhoundgrandma]

Your yellow rose is pretty!

I'm working on a baby blanket which watching the Olympics. I need it finished before the 25th. Five sections plus border--one section finished.

[Tampa Doll]

Love the pot holder.  It is really pretty.

This is what I am working on.  I am only doing the Panda one for a boy and I changed the bow to a blue one, instead of pink.

I am on the blue border section.  I just finished the white.  It is getting warm here, so I will have to put the yarn away soon.

Mary Jo, I have that Panda pattern - haven't made it yet - I'm taking a crochet break for a while. Last project was this 50 by 67 inch blanket for a fundraiser.. Easy pattern from Attic24.

[Bailey4]

Mona I can't wait to see the baby blanket.

Mary Jo the Panda is going to be adorable.

Judy the afghan is beautiful earning you a well deserved rest.

[Tampa Doll]

Wow Judy I have seen that pattern and backed away from it.  It is beautiful though and I love the blue.

[Tampa Doll]

I finished the Panda Afghan.  Now I think I will work on a monster or two, while I think what to make to go with it.

[Gardener]

Nice projects, ladies!

 

 MaryJo, those sorts of afghans intimidate me.  Yours looks great.  I wish it was getting warm here.......

 

Bailey4, such a pretty potholder. I’d be reluctant to use it!  Thread is not my friend.  Those tiny hooks hurt my hands, and so I bought some with plastic handles, (clover brand maybe?).  That helped with the hook problem....but now my aging eyes are causing problems.  I cant see those tiny stitches very well.

 

Judy, that’s a pretty afghan. And....no sewing together!
