life in crochet land

i have been working on the third round of Christians blanket, i found a star pattern that is really cool and its coming along quickly, first time i think i have been truly happy with the progress, and its going quite quickly. i am very happy, very happy.

i have crocheted myself a pretty little bookmark, it was super easy, if you are interested you can find the pattern here   it took less than one movie to make, it would have been maybe two in a movie but i had to un-do it a few times because it was super long.

we'll start with knit, i am knitting this scarf, i know it looks weird, i have to knit in the round five of those long things about 90 inches each then braid them and knit together at the end, its going to take me a year i know it!

Crochet, i call this the ugly blanket, its for my friends son, he picked the colors, black and neon green, its hideous , but he likes the colors so whatever. i am doing it a giant granny square because thats quick and i have about a month to finish it.

and here my pride and joy, the blanket i completed for marcella, its adorable, i cant wait to give it to her, i am just blocking it now.

Rolls & a Capelet

i made some home made rolls for dinner, they were the best rolls i have ever had EVER! and i totally made them from scratch, with yeast and all it took forever but they were delicious, i think i will make them for thanksgiving if we have dinner with anyone.

i started my capelet, i love it i love the rich burgendy color its fantastic. and its my first crochet project where i am following a pattern, its been tough and i have frogged each row at least once before i figure out the pattern , but i am on row 6 out of 20 if i can keep up maybe 4 rows a day i can finish it next week! just in time to show my mommy!

this is the color i am using its Valley Yarns Sugarloaf i got it at www.yarn.com Webbs is really close to me i visit there often

this is a better shot of the colorthis is the finished product

wokrings

i finally finished Paul's cap a few days ago, i don't think he wanted his picture taken it was a lot of work but i am very happy with it, it is knit, with Cascade 220 wool Grey size 10 circular needle, though i didn't knit in the round.

i also made my first granny square!

Crochet, Knit & Amigurumi

well start with Amigurumi its basicly a cute creature that is knitted or crocheted, like a stuffed toy and they are the cutest things in the whole wide world:
