Many colored afghan from magic ball

This is an afghan I am working on with scrap yarn that I have tied together to make a "magic ball" of yarn. I was going to donate it but daughter wants it herself. I will start a new one when this one is finished.

Baby Booties

I have been crocheting baby booties this past week. I am hoping to get at least 30 pair done by the 1st of the year. I have also been trying different patterns. Not so boring.

Lavender Baby Blanket

I finished this lavender blanket last night. It looked quite plain until I added the white border.

More hats and 105 items shipped

Here are 26 of Frank's loom knitted hats and we are shipping 105 hats, scarves and neck warmers out today.

2 Sleep Sacks with matching Hats

While sick with a bad cold this week, I managed to crochet 2 more sleep sacks with the matching sacks. I used the shell stitch for each.

Christmas Table Center Piece

I crocheted this table center piece today for our Christmas table. We will put some kind of candle on it.

Neck Warmers and Scarves

I loom knitted 10 neck warmers and crocheted 2 scarves for the Bridge and Beyond Project. I will ship them with a box of Frank's hats next week. Anything to help keep people warm this winter.

Blue Twin Stitch Sleep Bag

This is my latest sleep bag using the twin stitch. I used Lions Brand Pound of Love. I will be sending 3 sleep bags off to Gods Tiny Angels so they can get to he hospitals and hopefully we will get good feedback that they want more. They are fun and easy to make.

32 Hats by Frank

Here are the latest hats Frank has loom knitted. 32 of them.

Twin Stitch Sleep Bag and Hat

I decided to use my favorite stitch, twin stitch, to make a newborn sleep bag. I used the first 7 rounds from the wavy sleep bag pattern from Suzies Stuff web site, and the twin stitch in rounds for the rest. The hat pattern is found on Gods Tiny Angels web site. I wrote the pattern down as follows:
