Here's my progress so far on the stocking I'm crocheting for my mom to give to my SIL for Christmas. Our whole family has stockings like this with our names on the top...it's one of those special traditions we have...so since my little bro got married, my mom wants his new wife to have one, too! I'm stuck on this one right now because I left my black yarn (for the boots and belt) at church and can't do anything else until I get it back!

Taking the day to relax and enjoy the cloudy/rainy weather we're having, which means, of course, that I'm crocheting! Here's my progress so far on a scarf I'm making for my new SIL. It's Robyn Chachula's pattern from CrochetMe, and I'm using some old JoAnn's Rainbow Boucle...I don't know the exact color name, but it's a nice autumny orange, just like the trees falling outside my window!

Cocoa, that is really pretty! Neat pattern and color.

 

This fall weather here has me wanting to go outside and rake all those gorgeous leaves. I'm sure the neighbors would get a kick out of this very preggy lady outside "playing" in the leaves lol!

 

Enjoy your perfect crocheting weather

If you do go play in the leaves, remember this sage advice from Linus:

 

"Never jump into a pile of leaves with a wet sucker!"

Finally, got the HB bag done for my MIL

and have started the afghan for my son

also picks of the bags for my aunt and DSGF

which were finished before the CAL except for handles- i sewed ribbon inside them to prevent stretching!!!

always wanted to do this pattern- but thought the colors would turn someone off-then my son got a black couch and put red and yellow pillows on it so:
