Look! No Fingers!

I was messing around with the Tunisian (afghan) stitch and came up with these using the lace stitch. Even though they aren't something I would wear, they are pretty comfy. They don't take much yarn so it's a good way to burn up some of my leftovers in my stash.

ooooh, I still love my wedding rings too :) But I was trying to show the pattern better, more then my ring!

What the...............

So I ended up taking out the last row and just doing the ruffle edge, I can tell, which of course bugs the crap out of me...............but will a non-crocheter know?


I keep thinking I should do "something" of my own. I always have ideas in my head, so why not try it. I found this yarn at the thrift store and it is so soft. There were 2 skeins so I thought for sure I'd have enough. I really like how the Luna Scarf is made from the middle out, so thought I would do the same for this scarf. One side took one skein, so why wouldn't I have enough for both sides?


There isn't enough yarn to do the ruffley thing on the edge, so a couple of solutions: Frank said to leave it as it is........uuuuh no, could take out that last row then put the ruffley edge on, then just give it away (Autumn always likes my stuff), or just take it out and make a hat out of it. Any ideas?

The Luna Scarf

I got this pattern off of Craftster. It's easy and fast to do, plus it looks great. I made a few changes (always) but still like the results. I'll probably put them in the Christmas bazaar I'm going to be doing in November when I'm in Washington. Last year they had this great Alpaca yarn that for some reason I didn't buy any of, maybe I'll make enough from my sales that I "won't not" buy any this year.


I'm thinking red would be nice too............I'll have to dig though my stash.

Finally finished something

Guess I haven't posted in a while, ah, that is because I haven't had time to make anything! I started this purse for Mikayla thinking I would work on it all summer and have it finished in no time. Well I finally got it finished, and that is because I wanted to take it with me this week-end. Hope she likes it:

Yet more purses!

I managed to finish a few more purses, but I'm thinking these will be my last for a while this summer. I saw a purse shaped like this a couple of weeks ago, and loved it, so adapted it to my ties. I really like the green one. I'm trying to finish up the purse I crocheted for Franks daughters birthday, it's just waiting for Frank to make the handles.

Tank Top

It fits! Here it is all done and modeled......
I'm surprised I had any time to crochet since our summer season is really picking up, but I did manage to make this tank top for a personal swap on craftster. My swap partner picked out the pattern and I made it with some yarn that was included in some yarn I had ordered a while back.At first I was all worried that I would run out of yarn and that would be the end of it. I sure hope it fits her, I think it would have been better to have her close enough to try it on from time to time to make sure. The pattern is called the "cowgirl tank top" from DIY. Front, pictures don't do it justice. It's made to be form fitting.
Back, maybe I'll be able to get my swap partner to send a picture with it on.....if it fits!

Market bag

Finished this bag for Stephanie's bridal shower, since they'll be living in Seattle, I thought she should have one, can't use plastic in Seattle! But I'm really hoping the straps don't stretch too much! I hope she can get some use out of it.
