On My Hook...

On my hook right now is a Soft Navy/White Flannelghan.  This is made

using two strands of yarn so it's extra thick!  I'm using Caron One 

Pounders with a N hook & dc stitch.

It's not quite finished as I have to sew the panels 

together and finish the border.  This was originally

going to my son but now is staying here with hubby.

This pattern is by RoseRed and you can find her blog at....

Project Linus & Raffle

Well I turned in the last blanket to 
Project Linus and got in the raffle for more yarn.  
Was lucky to get 6 skeins of light sage so 
I'm splitting it up and using 2 skeins 
in 3 separate blankets.  The first will have 
buff and burgundy with it, the second will have 

carrot and variegated aspen print and the 
3rd will have cream.  How exciting!!!

Yellow & Orange Baby Blanket

Neat Ripple by Attic24

Project Linus.  Love the yellow & orange colors that

remind me of summer!  Just in time too!  Excited to 

start my next afghan...oh what will I do???

Emily's Afghan & Earthquake

Large Solid Granny Square

Left over yarn for another project 

Wow! Finally done!  I think it turned out real nice

and Emily's happy.  It measures right about 60"

square.  I used about 7 skeins of red heart and yes I 

over bought.  A lot!  I'm still learning how to gauge

how much to buy.  I started with 13 skeins making

sure my dye lots matched knowing this is important

for the project to look good.  I'll post a pic to show 

how much is left over.  I'm very surprised.

Here's what I started with:  2 skeins 16 oz. each 

& 9 skeins of 7 oz. each.

Looks like I'll be starting my first Project Linus 

blanket.  I'm thinking of a ripple...yes?

Also on another note...Yes we felt the

EARTHQUAKE!

Holy Smokes what a feeling!  I'm sitting in my 

big comfy chair crocheting and then everything

starts moving.  It was the most bizarre feeling.

Almost made me feel motion sickness.  So 

where and what???   It was 20 miles south of the 

U.S. border in Baja Mexico and originally called a

6.9 on the richter scale but upgraded to a 7.2 ~ dang!
