A Gift Received And One Yet To Be Given

My good friend Pat gave me this knitting journal to write the details of my projects.



I have always wanted one! Thanks Patricia!


This is the scarf I went on and on about making.


Made of Debbie Bliss Alpaca Silk(the tan part) and Cashmerino Chunky(the light blue). Both yarns are super soft and I crocheted it in a shell stitch pattern so it should be very warm. I bought both yarns at stix-n-stitches.


It is 80in. which is long enough to fold in half and loop through.

We will put our names in a bag and the name you pull is the scarf you get. I hope the Chalk Dust Knitter that gets my scarf likes it

I Got My Crochet Groove On!

It feels so good to have a crochet hook in my hands again! I make small short projects and it doesn't stress my hands. I must,again, thank My Photographic Life for posting her crochet cardi.

This baby cardigan was designed by a gifted crocheter Bella Bambina Kelly Kearney who is generous enough to give some of her patterns for free.


I think the vintage buttons are perfect!


The stripes give it a geometric look around the collar.


The yarn is Debbie Bliss Alpaca Silk and very soft.
Thank you Kelly!
