Gator Afghan

Gator Afghan- worked on from Spring 2009 to Spring 2011. Better pic to come

Baby Hat and Blanket

For my friends Bob and Stephanie's baby, due in February. The hat was made on a small circle loom with a flower on top. The center of the blanket was made on a circle loom. The border is made of two rounds of double crochet stitches, one round of V double crochet stitches, one round of single crochet then chain three stitches, and one round of four double crochet with chain three in between per loop. The pattern in the center was done with single crochets in an argyle pattern.

Gator Doily Blanket

This blanket will be composed of 24 of the big circles (three done so far) and then 15 smaller orange and blue ones.

Christening Rose Afghan

This is my christening rose afghan. Am calling it a "throw" because it is only 31 x 40 inches. Adapted from this pattern for color and difficulty.

Flower Afghan

These are the pieces of the new blanket I'm making. The flowers are pink, red, and maroon. The blanket will be 5 squares x 7 squares and is based on a pattern from "Join-As-You-Go Afghans" called "Christening Rose" by Maria Merlino, adapted to my beginner crocheter abilities.

Squared

Trying to decide what my next crocheted blanket will be. I think I want to do squares of flowers. These are two ideas I've had. I have been looking at many patterns online and then adapting (and guessing) the design to my skill level.

Completed Project

I have finished my first crocheted blanket. It took about 5 months on-and-off to do the whole thing. Made by combining 2-, 4-, 6-, 8-, and 12-row double crocheted squares. More crochet crafts to come. Expect them as gifts.

Yarn in paradise

I've been doing alot of crocheting lately. Fred and Neo have been keeping me company. The square on the bottom is the palm tree pattern I came up w/, but most of the squares are much more simple.

Babette Update

The babette blanket is coming along. See above. I think it's about a 1/4 of the way there. Maybe 1/2, depending on how sick I get of these colors...

Babette Blanket

I started crocheting this blanket-to-be in February and have been working on it for about a month now (I did the math for you). Here is the Knitting Daily link so you can see what it's supposed to look like. Above, see the yarn I'm using. I want it to be beachy colors. More pics to come.
