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!

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!!

cupcake crazy!!!

I am into cupcakes. so much fun and so instant-gratifying. I keep making them and giving them away. here's one I made for Valentines day (gone now) and the one I like that I'm hanging on to. I can't believe I made a cupcake dishcloth!!! isn't it cute? I thought it needed a cherry so I crocheted (Idon't crochet) a loop with red yarn to hang it out to dry. I'm going to try and resist any more til I finish my Feb mid-month KAL and a couple of other things Ontheneedles. Next week is Stitches woo hoo can't wait. I get to take Cat Bordhi's sock class.
