Isn't this a cute sweater?

The pattern is so lovely and it is one of those top down sweaters in crochet.

Quick and easy to do.

It's been a while.

It's been too long since I posted. Sorry about that
I am heading out the door in a couple of minutes for my second craft sale of the season.  So nice that I was able to set up last night and this morning I just need to add the finishing touches.  I have not done this sale before so we will see how I do.


I didn't do so well at this sale, but I am hoping to do it again next year.
It's a wonderful fund raiser for the school and it was so nice to visit with so many people.

Finally have the second baby afghan finished.
Aren't they cute?  Can't wait to give them as gifts.

Happy New Year

I have been working on some baby afghans for some new babies in the family.
Two little boys and hoping to see them on Saturday.
One afghan is done and the other one, I am on row 30 and really need to get the crochet hook moving.
I love this pattern.  It's my new go to baby blanket pattern.  Working it in blues, for boys, of course. Hope to post pictures when I have the second afghan completed.
Back to crocheting,

We live in an older home with cold floors.  So I decided to make myself some slippers, and made sure my ankles stayed warmed too, since they are always cold along with my feet.  I wanted something warm and nice looking so made myself some slipper socks in worsted weight yarn.  I had them on when the hubby come home from work last night and he called them my Santa slippers.
We had a laugh over that.
Aren't they cute?
If you want a pair, please contact me,  I will gladly make them.

It's close to the end of the year

Here it is getting close to the end of 2014 and I have not blogged as much as I was hoping too.
Been keeping up with the etsy shop and crocheting and knitting like crazy.
I hope to add more pictures to the blog and show what I am working on a bit more regularly.
Hope you come join me.

The latest finished crochet projects are completed and in two different colours.  They are for sale in the etsy shop.  The pattern was purchased from Mary Maxim in Paris, ON.  If you are ever in the area, it is a lovely place to visit for an hour or two or three.

My challenge this year is to crochet 7 squares a week and minimise the amount of stuff in my home by donating, selling of throwing out the accumulation of items that are not used any more.
Wondering if anyone would like to join me?
This morning it was an over the door rack that is not used anymore.  A box has been started for the RCS Thrift Store and/or the Bible for Mission Thrift Store.
This house will be more empty if I do this 6 days of the week times 52 weeks...lots of items :o)
