the picture does not do it justice. the edging is my own with a little help from a book. E-mail me if you want the pattern.

My "lasagne" scarf


There is a scarf on a blog, I believe it is knitted, but it is called "Lasagne" and it is wide with a ruffled edge. I want to give credit to whomever designed it. anyway, I can't knit but loved the wider look, so this is my experiment. I'm going to make it wider, tho, and put a ruffle on the other side as well.

Experiments in smaller yarn ruffles




I was doing scarves last night and since I live on the southern coast, I wanted something more like a lacey jabot thing.....know what I mean? So I had some Red Heart skinny yarn, Lustre Sheen and I started experimenting with it. Did a regular scarf pattern with it just in black, then added a ladder yarn with it and this is the result:

Anyway, that's the update.

I have to get the ends woven in, tags on and these little things off to the apprpriate places. That's the tedious part! But I have some dolls that are almost done as well, and the modified legwarmers and gauntlets, too. So check back!
Enjoy your day!!

And lastly, sweaters


A few of the sweaters.

Blankets


Stacks of baby blankets..... these are a few

Caps


Stacks of caps. Dozens and dozens, this is just a little!!

Shawls





I have done some more shawls, the same pattern as the blue one shown in previous post. Two are in the same size needle, but the light one...I used a Crystalite needle, a large one, but it does not have a size on it!! So I don't rmrmber what size it was. But it came out much lookser, as you will see.

Homespun shrug




I took some really bad, fuzzy pics of this but maybe you can make them out. I did this shrug by the generic shrug pattern of measuring, and depended on the yarn to do the talking. I am going to add a couple of more inches to the back, hence the "tail"! LOL! Modeling...my daughter, Rachael.

What's up lately....



I have been busy, new job and trying to complete some of the billion projects I have going. So here's the status. Two ripple round blankets, one isn't complete but will be by tonight. I FINALLY got the pattern to work for me and love the outcome.

Hi to all, new stuff!!





O.K., here's the deal. I'm showing 2 pics of my daughter's photography in this swing, because I think it's beautiful and it conveys how she feels about her music perfectly, I think. She plays symphonic flute.
