5 Preemie Baby Blankets

I just finished up my 5th preemie blanket this afternoon. I crocheted all of these using the twin stitch pattern. Had a good start then got sick for a few days, so just felt like finished up the lavender one today. Hope to get a few more done this next week.

Frank's latest loom knitted hats

Here are 20 hats Frank loom knitted this past week.

Jake with his new blanket

I crocheted this round ripple blanket for Jake, age 1. He is the little boy I baby-sit for a few hours a week. Mommy picked the colors and Jake loves his new blankie!

First Donations of the year

We donated 25 of Frank's loom knitted hats this week plus 2 gently used coats to our church for the Helping Hands group in our area. We are off to a good start with our 2011 donations.

Yellow Round Ripple Baby Blanket

I made this yellow rr blanket using some very thin yarn I had on hand and used 2 strands with a K hook. As I didn't have any other colors of this same yarn, I decided to make it a solid yellow. It thought it turned our very pretty. Also had plenty of the yellow leftover for Frank to loom knit a couple hats.

Blue and White X Box Stitch Baby Blanket

I finished crocheting this baby blanket yesterday. I used the x box stitch pattern and it went very fast and I didn't have to do any frogging!

Pink Butterfly Wings Baby Blanket

I finally finished this butterfly wings baby blanket. I sure had a lot of trouble with this pattern and did quite a bit of frogging before I got it done. The pattern can be found in a Leisure Arts booklet titled 24 Hour Baby Afghans.

Another Baby Blanket Finished

I finished this baby blanket today. I used the twin stitch.

Beautiful Crocheted Swan

This picture of this swan was shared in one of my crochet lists on Yahoo. No information came with it but someone sure did a lovely job crocheting it. Click on the picture to get a close up view.
