About Time!


Ok ok, something for those of you who happen by my blog by accident, a pic of the sweater I recently finished. Size 2 toddler, Lion Brand Wool-Ease and Red Heart acrylic, size 9 needles, and JBH buttons, upside down. I like them better that way. They had a lot of color on the other side. I am working on several other projects at the same time, another Tonalita scarf, a sweater from Knitscene adapted to my style, and of course the ever on going Angelina, and a pair of gloves for my Dad. I need to finish some of them quick, because I need to make a sweater for my son. He seems to be a bit jealous of the sweaters that I have made for my daughter.

It's been so long....

There has so much activity since I posted last, and boy let me tell you that it has been busy, but of course I let a couple items get away without any pics. As for the grey sweater I started it is done, but I can't find the perfect buttons yet. The pink in the sweater is kind of bright, so I am going to have a hard time finding something to match. As for one of the items that got away, it was a baby blanket, tan with light blue dark blue and brown stripes, and I crocheted and edging around with three of the four colors. I may make another one close to the one I gave away, for a couple of my cousins, we will see. I have already started a baby sweater to match the blanket that I made. I hope the pattern turns out okay, I have never used it before, it is a variation of the 5 hour baby sweater. It doesn't really seem to have the stitch counts right, and I don't know if it is me, or if it the pattern. I will post a pic of the sweater in a day or so hopefully, I would rather have buttons on it first though;-)
