I have finally finish my two latest crochet patterns. These are both inspired by a very cool old potholder pattern you can find here.
First we have this nifty Bloom Hat I made for Kyla’s Flower Faerie costume.
Much craziness since we last talked. Let’s see here, how about a basic run down?
First, Doug went off to Pennsic XL (that’s 40, not extra large). It was quite surreal to know that he was there, while I wasn’t; even more so each evening when he would call. However, considering everything we had planned with my Mother’s side of the family in the upcoming week, there was no sane or financially intelligent way for the rest of us to join him.
Just dropping in to give you a quick peek at what I’ve been up to as of late.
I made these arm warmers many moons ago, but they kept slipping down. The top ribbing was only about 1/2″, just not long enough. So I undid the top 4″ of knitting, and redid it all in a k2 p2 rib. Much better, not more slipping. I have a feeling they will get much more use this fall and winter now that they stay up!
First, let me say that yes, I will be posting Christmas pictures. I am aiming to get caught up with that this week.
In the beginning of December I received this box from my parents. Happy mail!!
Inside were a few small Christmas gifts, and some more goodies:
