I am finally caught up with the Monthly KAL!! had a struggle with the Joanne cloth and had to finally finish the illusion easter egg. So Hooray, ready to take on August. Here's pics of the ones I finished.

June 09 KAL

This is the June 1st KAL. It's one of the better ones we've done. It's easy, shows definition and is a good size.

I'd like to make it in red & white for a set.

I'm still behind from the Easter Egg one. I couldn't ever get the instructions right. I'll have to get busy and get it done

May 2009

Here's the Monthly KAL for May "Daisy" and my first attempt at "amigurumi" a crocheted mouse. Really fun!!

Friends and champagne

I made this "champagne cozy" for my friend's daughters wedding, we saw some at a winery and they were $20 each, So I piped up and said"oh I can make that for nothing" ha ha

well, I have to say it didn't cost much in money, but was a stretch for my poor old brain!!! It's a simple y/o, k2tog with a row of knit in between, and I used #10 crochet thread, black to suit the color scheme, but the decreases were a challenge since I wanted it to hug the bottle. So.......many days and much math later they are done. I hope she likes them and the bride and groom as well!

March KAL

finished both of the March KAL dishcloths. I am taking a class on making fairy dolls, sure looks like fun

STITCHES!!!!

HOme from Stitches, what a great time. YARN YARN YARN. patterns, books, and every other thing to do with fiber arts. Everyone was so friendly and my classes were superb. Cat Bordhi is a lovely, kind patient person. I think I have the sock concxept down now. More later. Pagf

Feb mid month KAL

I finished the Feb KAL for the Yahoo group. It's really different. I like it and want to make it in two colors (really pretty) It's called the circle cloth and was easy, easy. Perfect for me!!
