Another WavyBaby Blanket

I used Caron Perfect Match in White, Hobby Lobby's I Love This Yarn in Soft Blue and TMA All Season in CloverPatch (the green). The picture doesn't show the detail of the green very well.. it has tiny flecks of yellow and blue in it.. very subdued.






The pattern calls for Baby Yarn and to start with a chain of 176; ending up with 175 stitches in the first row. I used worsted weight and chained about 132. I ended up having to undo some of my beginning chain. Eventually I had 118 stitches in a row and 6 "waves" per row in the blanket.

Now to go work on the "Impressive Plaid" blanket I started this weekend while hubby was glued to the tv watching football.

Another Hearts & Diamond throw






I'll probably give this to ProjectLinus for a teen, unless some other good use comes up for it. A little too femine for my ds and dd has enough blankets at the moment. And I did this pattern for all 4 sisters & sis in law a while back.

Did this to bust stash. Using 4 skeins of Red Heart kids in color Jade (sure looks turquoise to me) and 3 skeins of RH super saver Amethyst. Had to buy 1 skein of RH Turqua to finish out the heart sections (couldnt' find RH Kids).. I was short only 1 oz!! GRRRrrrr

One of my favorite quick (and free) patterns. Thinking of doing one in RWB for ProjectLinus for their memorial day drive.

Fish Purse

Here's a funny fish purse I made back before Christmas.. just for the heck of it.

Shown with mouth closed and then open (drawstring closure).









Please click for more detail


I made this out of some RedHeart that Michaels was clearancing out at 50 cents a skein.. they only had 1 of purple and 1 of green left... what a bargain eh?

Sending it off to my great-niece in Florida care of her Granny (my sister). Hope the little girl will enjoy it.

Oh.. the pattern is available on Crochetville.
