Beautiful Wrennie.  I am having PB issues but will post here soon.  I still just love that scarf and cannot wait to get my yarn to make some more.

What a great idea Wrennie.  Lys is loving the washcloth I made for the kitchen and would love me to make her a set of those.  I even have pink yarn for her.  Another project for my list.  How about some instructions to go along with that scrubbie please, please.  And what stitch did you use for the back scrubber?

Oh man, those are all so cute.  I am gonna have to figure out how to read that darn pattern now.  I am for sure gonna make those sets, one for Lys and one for all of my nieces for the holidays.  They will love them!

I finally got my new PB up and running.  So now I get to share.

The blue baby blanket I finished, it is probably going to be headed to Nevada for a friend of mine who is expecting in January.



And the first section of an afghan I am making for my niece for her wedding.  The blue square is actually the middle of the afghan with another red then brown square to the left of it.

I might have to try to make me one of those back scrubber things, Wrennie. It has been a long time since I crocheted anything, so this will be an experiment to me. I hope I can read the pattern and understand it... :D

Triss, that blanket is so pretty and your friend in Nevada is going to appreciate having the baby wrapped in love, just as much as we did, with Destiny! :-*

Thanks everyone!

I got a headache looking at the pattern but I think I can actually figure them out, all but the face scrubber one.  Had to stop trying and will mess with it once I actually find the yarn to do some.

I have a pink one going like the blue and already gave a yellow one like it to Jenn for her daughter Maddie.  My friend in NV is having her 5th child, 1 boy and 3 girls so far so she is very happy to be having a boy this time around.

It gave me a headache the first time i made a set too. The back washer stitch was trickiest until my mind stopped trying to force it to be a regular DC {double crochet stitch}

Here is one of my little purses. I like to combine yarns.

I finished up the scarf I started last night with the yarn that Wrennie picked up for me.  This one turned out about 5 feet long.  I think I will make the blue one a lil thinner so it can be a lil longer.



Planning on working on the other one today before I jump back into afghans.

That is really cheerful, Triss. I like it. You are still working on your mustard /squares afghan, aren't you?

Thanks Tina,  I am still working on it, just taking a bit of a break.  I was waiting on getting more yarn and I have that now so I will do the next section after I finish up the blue pebbles scarf that i have been working on this afternoon.  If I keep on the roll I am on now, that will be tomorrow.

I used an I hook.  I really like that one for the more bulky yarns.  The blue is looking sooo nice. I think I am gonna keep that one for myself.
