Scarves

Heres a Scarf and a Scarf and Hat set that I will be donating to charity.

Fat Bottom Bag - Finished. I just need to weave in the ends. Oh yeah and I need my handles lol I ordered them like 8 or 9 days ago from eBay and haven't gotten them yet. I'm not sure if I will use the dark brown 6 inch pair or the bamboo 5 inch pair. The color is actually a little off in this picture. It's darker, the yarn is Lion Brand Suede in Denim.

The pattern in the book with a small piece when I started

First My Yo Yo's :) Woo Hoo I have 289 done so far :)


Second a Spiral Scarf for Mil made from left over yarn Lion Brand Homespun (dark purple) and TLC Amore (pink)

This is a scrap scarf I made from little pieces of yarn that i tied together. The pattern was really simple. I started with a chain to the thickness that I wanted it Plus an extra 3 chains (counts as first DC). Row 1: in the 4th chain from the hook DC, DC in next chain, *chain 1, Skip 1 chain and DC in the next chain* repeat from * to * across with 1 chain remaining and DC in the last chain.
Row 2: Turn, Chain 4 (counts as first DC and chain 1), *Skip 1st stitch, DC in next stitch, chain 1*, repeat from * to * across DC in last DC. Row 3: Turn, Chain 3 (counts as first DC) *DC in next stitch, Chain 1, Skip 1 DC*, Repeat from * to * across 1 DC in each of last 2 DC's. Repeat rows 2 and 3 until you reach your desired length and bind off and weave in ends.


This is a scarf I made for myself. I found the idea in a post on Craftster. All it is, is a bunch of long pieces of yarn that i knotted together and then braided and knotted at the other end. Really simple Only took maybe a half hr to make :)

I just made these 2 necklaces for my nieces. The picture is kind of bad but I need to redo them so I will get a better picture when I remake them. I'm worried because they are a little small and I want them to be able to wear them for a while.

Lots of stuff finished!!! Partially because I've been crocheting a lot partially because I'm really bad at keeping up with my blog lol.

First a not so short "Short and Sweet" from the Happy Hooker Book. It's my first sweater and I made it for myself but it's a little to big for me ... I'm not really lovin it on me. I will probably give it as a gift for christmas next year

This is a scrap scarf I did for my mom, not the best picture but alas I already gave it to her so I can't take another.

Another Scrap Scarf this one is for my aunt :)

A small blanky for my son in the shape of an octopus :)


I'm still working on an afghan for my sister and a spiral scarf for MIL. Gavin wants me to make him a sweater vest from the Candy Tot's book for which I just ordered the yarn from Knit Pick's last night, so I will be starting on that very soon :)

Gavin asked me to make him a new hat with "ball's and ears on it" this is what he got :)

Heres my afghan I was working on :) It's FINALLY done!

Here are some pics from Jadyn's birthday party.

Eating Cake

Presents

Dawn, Kenzi and Gavin blowing up balloons

This is from Gavin's first day of school. Shortly after this he threw a huge tantrum because he was in the wrong room. So this was the only picture we got :(

And heres my little crafty boy making some bracelets :)

I forgot to take a picture of the red white and blue afghan finished before I sent it to my friend :( But heres the poncho I made for her:

I'm really bad at this whole "blogging" thing. I made a really cute scarf and hat for one of Gavin's girl friends and didn't get a picture before I gave it to her :( Oh well. I'm working on a few blankies for my friends mom to give at baby showers.






This one is pretty much done. I just need to weave in a "few" ends.












This one I just started the other day. i really love the colors :)








I also need to make a poncho and finish up a blanket I started at the begining of the summer. And then theres the bag for the Happy Hooker chain gang along ... and I wonder why I have such a hard time remembering to blog lol.
