Busy Weekend and a Rainy day :)

                        This is the only project I worked on this weekend. We were  busy all weekend.
This is the Lyn hat by Danyel Pink. I tested the pattern out for her. It is really cute and has some nice texture to it.  And the pattern was easy to understand and follow. I made this hat in a color called Frsoty Green. It is a really pretty color in person. :)  I think I will be making several more of these.

                        This weekedn was a busy one for us. Bob and I were chaperones for our Youth Group at Carowinds Theme Park.  We each had a group of 5 teenagers. And with a lot of rides to choose from- well it was just crazy running all over the place. And, it was hot on top of that.
 And then on Sunday, we had Youth after church at our house. So we had a large group of teens over along with several parents. :) It was a lot of fun having everyone over. :)
   We finally received some rain. It rained all day yesterday. And with that system coming in, I was finally able to turn the air off. I have the windows open and letting all the fresh air in. :) Love this time of year.
  I have done some more work on the Monster Scrappy; so I should have some new pictures to share tomorrow. I am really liking this one a lot. I can't wait to get it finished and put it on my bed.


       Have a great day everyone

Brrrrr!!! Its cold outside

Brrrrrrrrrrr! We woke up to a very cold 24 degrees this morning. I can't believe how cold it is again. It was just the other day that we were almost 80 degrees out there. Our high for today is only 48. I think I will be staying inside today. Which will give me a chance to finish up some projects.

These are some baby washcloths that I made for a custom order. I used Bernat Cot N Soft 100% cotton in pale yellow. these washcloths are super soft. :)
I will be making a set of 3 in white as well. I don't have a pattern source for these as I just used a basic stitch to make them.I did a chain and then hdc's. I added a single crochet border to them.
I tried a textured stitch with them also, but it made them feel lumpy and not as soft. So I ripped that out and started over with the basic stitches.

SNOW!!!

Getting snow here in North Carolina is always exciting. :)

The top picture was taken this morning. The rest were taking last night when it was snowing.

Cold, Cold Cold!!

Someone has seriously pulled the plug on the heat here! No joke on that one either. We had noticed a huge increase in our electric bill, and the house was just not that warm. (The bill had tripeled from the previous month) So we called the Electric company to see if we could figure out what was wrong. We had just had our furnace seviced 2 months ago. They came out to look and guess what we found???? A hole in the door to get under the house. A cat had gotten in there and pulled down the duct work for the heat pump. So while we were freezing in the house, there were cats bathing in the heat under the house. Litterally, it was 70 degrees under the house. No wonder the floors have been so warm latly. Well, we fixed that hole, and the duct work. YAY! It is now nice and comfortable in the house. I am soo glad it is fixed now too as we are suppose to drop down to 5 degrees tonight. And that is not normal for us here. Way too cold for me. hope everyone else is staying nice and warm.

I finished the Toffee Lacy scarf. It is 3.5 inches wide and 59 inches long. I havn't decided what color I would like to do next yet. Before I get started on that, I have about 5 more orders to finish up in my shop. I am hoping to have them all done and ready to go on Tuesday. :)
