For us...

This afghan is made from Red Heart Soft Yarn in teal, wine and off-white. It measures approximately 50 by 68 inches and is incredibly soft. The colors match DH's office, so it will rest on the sofa bed there...unless it starts travelling down to the living room :>)

For Cornell's NICU

This baby ghan is so "Christmassy"! Made from the first two rows of a granny square that we on Crochetville have christened "saltines" because of their size, the blanket measures approximately 21 inches square. There's a close up of the edging, a row of sc followed by a row of rev hdc.

An Early Birthday Present...

...from my friend Wendy who lives "Down Under". She's so thougthful. She made a wonderfully soft scarf and hat, and she remembered my fascination with Betty Boop, too. Thanks, hon!

Latest projects...

From DH...for our Anniversary on December 2nd.

Sorry for the sideways pic - it's a scarf for my 91 yo FIL's neighbor who is our second set of eyes.

A suede scarf/shawl for my sister.

...the RR for my friend's DD 20, on a Queen sized bed. It took about 7 skiens of Homespun, one strand and an L (8mm) hook.

Child's Ghans #s 2 & 3 for Fisher House

A Child's Throw

I added some squares to add to those that were donated to me to make this blanket for a child staying at Fisher House. It's a house near a miltary base where families can stay while wounded loved ones are in the nearby hospital. There are several across the country. I have lots more squares to border and assemble before getting a box on it's way.

A Throw I Made...

To cover Sparkie's favorite cushions on the sofa - he loves to drape his body across them to get close to "daddy". I took these pics of almost 3 year old Sparkie (the dark GSD) and his big "sister" Susie (10 years old) tonight.

Updates....

Top and bottom are for the NIC unit charity we're helping on Crochetville. The middle is my project, a pet memories graphghan. It's not finished yet, as you can tell, but so far this shows our GSDs up to and incuding our current furbaby, Sparkie, who is nearly three. Susie, the last girl on the list, is 10 now. They love being together :>)

More Donated Ghans

The top is a 22 inch square for the NIC unit...I just liked the colors and wanted to play :>)
The bottom is a 48 inch RR made from leftovers I had of Homespun yarn. Some little boy will like how soft it is.

Baby ghan

I found the blue squares in my stash and made enough white ones to make this 22 inch baby blanket. It'll be going to the NIC unit.
