Two new shawls - I made these to list on Etsy. So far Etsy has been a bust for me. Lots of views - no bites. I figure it's mostly other crafters looking to see what I am selling and how much I am asking. Oh well, if they don't sell they will be gifts.

Well, I finally got WIPs bars on my site thanks to Noricum at Crochetville - http://www.crochetville.org. Thanks!

Something for me!

I

This is the front and back view of the shawl. I found this pattern and loved it. It is made with Lion Brand Homespun in Tudor. The picture on the pattern was much longer. I am not very tall, so I was glad mine was shorter. It might "grow" as time goes by.

Catching Up

I haven't posted in a while. My old computer crashed, and between getting a new one and fighting with my girl for computer time....well, you know.

I don't have any pictures of new crochet items uploaded, so I had better get busy. I hope everyone had a Blessed Christmas and that there is a wonderful New Year in the offing!

Pineapple Bookmarks

I made these for the ladies in my Sunday School class for Mother's Day. My class has a lot of older ladies and they loved them. I even was "commissioned" to make 4 more and she is going to pay me! Yay!

Baby Set

I participated in the Survivor Challenge at CAL Pals. My part of the challenge was this baby set. I had to frog a lot, but I think it turned out cute. Model is courtesy of my daughter.

Hot....hot....HOT!!!!!

This pattern was one of Annie's Free Pattern a Day patterns. My Mom grows hot peppers, so I thought I would try it. It was easy. I also had someone ask me to make one and they bought it! Yay!

Splash the Dolpin

Here is "Splash" the Dolphin. I crocheted him for my oldest DD's friend next door for her birthday. She gave him the name "Splash". DH kept asking me if it was a whale She liked it anyway!

Hats....hats....hats.....

I am sporadically participating in the Hat-a-week CAL at Crochetville. I have gotten waylaid by some other things I needed to get done - a baby gift, prayer shawls for church. Here are a few of the ones I have finished - some modeled by my resident models.

Crazy Daisy

This is what happens when you wake up at 1:30 and can't go back to sleep - you design a bookmark! I wrote this down and now have to test it. I am considering sending it in for the Crochet Pattern a Day calendar for next year.

Lace N Bobbles Crochet a Long

I am currently making the Lace N Bobbles afghan for a Crochet-a-long at Crochetville. I am making it in Caron Super Soft Brites. I don't think I ma going to have enough yarn to finish, and I am on yarn probation, so it will be a big as it gets. Here is the pic:
