New Dishcloths, New Project,Camo Girl Afghan

This first set of dishcloths is made with a pretty varrigated color called Rosewood.

Its a pink,tan and white. It looks like Neapolitan Ice Cream to me.

This set is made with Peaches and Cream and Lilly Cotton.

I used the colors, yellow, Ivory and white.

This is a new scarf I just started. I am making it with an Alpaca/Acrylic blend. It is super soft.
I am using a pretty pineapple stitch. At its widest point it measures 6.25 inches. I am not sure how long I will be making this one yet.





I am still working on the Camo girl afghan. Sorry I don't have a new picture right now.
I am hoping to have this one done in the next few weeks.

Baby Ripple done, Jareds Ripple

I have finally finished the baby afghan. :) I did a shell stitch border to finish this one off.




I started over again on Jareds Ripple afghan. I decided that it needed a sharper edge instead of the more curvy edge. I thought it may be a little more masculine this way.

There is a picture of the new one. :)

Almost done

The baby afghan is almost finished. :)

Baby Afghan, Peaches Pouches, Update on Hannah

Here is an updated picture of the baby afghan. I switched it over to a round version. :) It is a little over halfway done now.



These are more of the Pouches I am making for Amy. She uses a lot of them. :)



And now for Hannah. Its looking more likely that she will go East of us. We will still get some storms and rain from her, but nothing as serious as first thought. Right now she is still a tropical storm, but they expect she will be a cat 1 hurricane soon.Next on the list is Ike..... But they aren't really sure where he will be heading. A possable hit on Fla or if we are all lucky he will just turn and head back out into the Atlantic. Currant status on Ike is that he is a cat 4.

This and That

I am still working on the baby sweater. I have the first sleeve halfwaty done. This pattern that I have been using has been pretty easy to follow. For those that crochet and may be interested I found it on Ebay. It is an original design by Rebecca Leigh
Here is a closer view showing the sleeve


We only have a few more days before school starts here. The kids go back on the 25th. They are looking forward to the start of the year. They have been really bored the last couple of weeks of summer. We have allready bought new school cloths and most of the basic supplies. I know when school actully starts I will still have more things to buy for them. It happens every year, even when they give you a list at the end of the year. They always find more things.


This is Mr Sid. He is such a ham. We adopted him from my SIL. She had several cats and Sid was stressing them all out. He loves to play, and chases our Lucky all over the house.


And yes, Mr Lucky is always laying around the house like that. Hes a very sweet cat. We found him a little over a year ago. The kids were doing a car wash for our youth group and saw him running around. He was just a little baby. He was really dirty and looked like he was more of a grey brown color when we first saw him. Now he is a pretty grey and white.

Almost done. Olympics

Well the baby sweater is almost done now. Just have the sleeves to finish up.
I have been getting a lot of crochet done while watching the Olympics. I have been enjoying the swimming with Michael Phelps. He has been doing a wonderful job. I have also been enjoying the Gymnastics. :) The guys and the girls did a great job out there. :) Has anyone else been watching? If you have what is your favorite?

Olympic Medal Counts

More progress

I only have a few more rows to do on the body of the sweater. Then I need to add the arms and a trim to it. The ripples in it are really cute. :) I will be working on the bonnet and booties next. Then I will only have the blanket left to do.

Baby Sweater Progress, and Peaches Pouches

I am still working on the baby sweater. I am almost halfway done with it. I am at the part now where it starts to ripple.

I am also working on some more pouches for Amy. Here is a picture of the ones I finished up the other day.
