Gingerbread Boy Knit Dishcloth

Hello everyone. Long time, no see. LOL! I tried my hand at designing a knit dishcloth. It came out pretty well. I have the pattern on Scribd because it's easier than typing it all in here. Give it a try, it's easy peasy.

I'm Still Here!

Hi everyone! I know I haven't been blogging in a very long time. I haven't been crocheting or knitting much in quite a while either. I did pick up some needles today and started a dishcloth. :-)

Things are difficult at present with hubby laid off and my health as it is, but I hope to get back on the bandwagon soon. LOL! Sorry I have nothing to show for my time. I've been spending lots of time on Facebook and Pogo playing games. It's a good distraction. :-) Hope to have something to post soon. Just wanted to let you all know I'm still here. :-) Hugs to you all.

Stained Glass Window Afghan

Hi everyone! It's been ages since I posted here. Boy have I been bad. I haven't been doing too much crocheting but I'm getting back in the swing of things now. Here's my latest project. It's the Stained Glass Window afghan found in this book. It's so pretty and it's not difficult but it's very time consuming with tons and tons of ends to weave. This afghan is going to Laura, a friend from my Sky CAL group. Thanks for looking. :)

Shawl For a Friend

Greetings! I just finished this shawl for a friend's sick gram. It's called Connected Hearts Triangle Shawl and it is very easy and pretty. It's made with Caron Simply Soft in white and measures around 60" across and 30" deep. I added a picot edging. I hope her gram likes it. :) Thanks for looking. :)

Learn To Knit Afghan (LTK)

The Sky ladies are having a KAL using the Learn to Knit Afghan Book. We're making one square per week but I joined in a little late so I have to catch up. Here are my first six squares. They ended up being about 9" square. I'm using RHSS in Aran, Buff, Ranch Red and Dark Sage and size 6 needles. I think it will be nice. I learned to knit when I was a little kid and I really don't do it much so this will be good practice for me. I decided to blow the dust off my needles and give it a shot. I'll be adding pics of my squares as I go along. Thanks for looking. :)

Square #6 - Twisted and Crossed Ribbing
Square #5 - Diagonal Ribbing
