Another ripple :) #2 and #3 for Stash Buster 2013

Here is another ripple I made with my stash. So I guess this is my #2 stash buster blanket. I wish I would of had more of the variegated I search every where and I couldn't find it, I don't even know the name of it, it measures 44 x 76.  #3 was made with a tote bag and a half of just scraps of yarn. It turned out kind of pretty considering it was just a simple HDC all the way thru, I started it in December and finished in January it measures 69 x 79. I am thinking it is  going in the camper,

#2 * 44 X 76 

#1 * 54 x 55

# 3 * 69 X 79

All 3 of my stash buster projects so far.

It's finally sunny here, we are still waiting in Minnesota for spring to show up. 

I think it is hiding for sure. 

You all have a wonderful day.

Happy  Crocheting

Something new

Finished a few project since the first of the year I want to join the stash buster challenge however I forgot how to add the links.  I think my memory is impaired at times from my medicines. Lol.
Anyway here is one I have done from my stash. Maybe someone could be so kind and remind me how to do links etc. I would appreciate it.
I have done 3 blankets since January busy busy.
Here is #1 of my challenge  It measures 54x55

My goal this year is to make a new blanket for each one of our grandchildren. We have 4, 1 girl and 3 boys. Actually that will be changing in July as our youngest daughter is expecting another boy. Little miss Tatum was a bit disappointed that she wasn't getting a girl cousin. oh, well I do believe she will enjoy being a little mother hen with this little guy.

I will post again later today
Happy crocheting, and have a great day.

Were has the time gone?

Hello my friends, I can't believe that January is almost over. Now that I have got my blogging issue's figured out I'm hoping to stay more intouch.

I decided to join the Stash Buster 2013 group but I will show you that in my next post.

Today I will just give you a peek at my WIP since it's Wednesday. I almost am done with it. I begain working on it right after the new year, it is just so pretty I don't know what I am going to do with it.  Some lucky little girl in the family I suppose.  

I just think it is just so pretty. The orange really isn't that bright, just my goofy camera. I hope the picture turns out better when its all done.

My great niece Amanda wanted a slouchy beanie. Let me tell you I have to admit it is the ugliest thing I feel I have ever made. She wanted purple and orange, what a combination. I have made tons of hats and this was my least favorite, just wasn't crazy about the pattern at all. 

Oh well, she loved it and I guess that is all that matters.

Well I guess that is all for now, I will see you next time with my stash buster projects.

Happy Crocheting.

2 for Tuesday

I don't normal do a 2 for Tuesday but since I had a fun weekend I thought I would show you what I did.

Tatum's new headband, she was so excited. Got to love that smile.She still would like Grandma to make her a Hello Kitty Hat. So that is on my list to do. This little headband created a lot of work for me. I got 15 orders for headband. Excited because it will give extra Christmas money.  :)

Levi sporting his new Newsboy hat.  He wanted a football on it  that was a little tough but I  figured it out. The poor  little guy came down with the tummy flu but still manage to model his hat.



 

I best be getting my hook and get busy lots to do besides the headbands I have to make another little zebra hat, and 3 fancy lace scarves made with the RH Sashay.

Happy Crocheting 

What to do????

Ok, so I am just about done with my scrap blanket. I have been able to make it big enough to put on our king size bed for extra warmth this winter.
Now I don't know what to do. I want to make a blanket and have plenty of colors in my stash so I need not to by any yarn, I just don't know what pattern to do. There is just so many beautiful patterns out there, darn Raverly and Pintrest. Any suggestions?
I have never done any that you have to sew together, but would like to try. Just don't know if I have the patience to do all that piddly work. 
Maybe I will have to wait till my little granddaughter comes and let her pick a pattern, I don't know.
Happy Crocheting

Slippers and Cinderella

Kinda of a grey day here in southern Minnesota. At least the wind isn't blowing for a change and I guess I should be happy that it hasn't snow. 

As I said in my last post I have been making things to take down to your local craft shop to sell. 

Slippers are a good item for me along with the Nook covers and little girl satchels. 

Here is just a few of the things I have taken down there.

The Nook  Covers have done really well for me.

 Little Girl Satchel's

Slipper's just a easy one piece pattern.  I can't even begin
to tell how many I have made. This is just a few.

One of these days I will figure how to get picture on here where they aren't so scattered. lol

I get it figured out one time and the next time is a disaster. Kinda of like adding thing one the back ground Links etc give me such a hard time. 

Well I better get back to my crocheting I have a order for fancy scarfs made with the Sashy by RH. My daughter goes to Avalon School of cosmetology and the girls love the ruffle scarfs, kind of a headache for me but a little extra cash for Christmas. 

One more thing. Speaking of my daughter Kaylee she is our youngest, she is 26 and recently took part in a fashion show at a local mall on Saturday.  Here is our little dark haired Cinderella. 

And she got engaged just last Tuesday.
