Rosella's Afghan

This afghan worked up quickly and easily.  I like the fan and feather pattern, but I've avoided stripes in the past because I don't like to weave them in.  I put the fringe on instead so the chevron patter is vertical.
And, I see to my horror that the stripes are not the same!!!!
Well, what is done is done.  
Sigh.

Lynette's Chunky Afghan

I've done a lot with this pattern.  This is two strands 4-ply with size 15 needles, with 8 repeats for a little larger than 4x5 blanket.  She wanted "chunky".  It didn't take me too long to make it.  I would rather sit and knit that actually do my work.

I made the pillow out of a sweater.

Deb's Afghan


I'm into knitting afghans lately.  I'm really enjoying these lacy ones. I feel really good about the way this one worked up.  It's beautiful.

Renee's Afghan

This is a gorgeous and fairly easy pattern to memorize.

Scarf for Cyndie

I was needing some handwork to do, so my friend bought the yarn and I made her a scarf. I love this yarn and now I have a skirt that would go with it, but it isn't mine!!

This yarn is one of those fuzzy thread like ones.







The pattern for this is CO 15 on 11 size needles.
Knit 3 Rows.
Row 4: Knit, yo 2 times, across.
Row 5: Knit, drop yo.
Row 6-7: Knit
Row 8: Knit, yo 3 times, across
Row 9: Knit, drop yo
Row 10-11: knit
Repeat Row 4-11 until desired length (about one skein), Knit three rows at the end and BO.

I'm doing another one now, where I'm just doing the yo three times every time to make the pattern.

May Projects

The scarf on the left is made in a very easy ripple with two strands of crochet cotton, and the one on the right is another one of these, with the added bright pink from my own stash, since the yarn wasn't quite the same and didn't have any pink it it, and that was one of the things I liked.

Baby Sacque

I love to knit and crochet and I like to try new projects even when I don't have a pattern. This baby sacque designed for Dalayna's little monster was a "fly by the seat of my pants" project so I hope it does what she wants it to do. We tried it on her little cousin and it worked, it looks like it will only be for newborns, likely the only size baby that would tolerate it very well.


I made a little hat to go with it from the left over yarn.


This scarf looks big, but it isn't, I thought it would fit Boo Boo the bear.
