I feel like I haven’t gotten anything accomplished for a while now. I’ve been working on testing a shawl pattern for someone and it’s been rather time consuming. It’s not the pattern, it’s me. Instead of using the suggested weight …

Another finished object or two
Guess I’m a little late posting my latest finished items but there they are. Finally finished the afghan I had tension issues with which I posted about here. This one turned out nice and even. I tested this pattern for …
Will I Never Learn?!!
One of my many in progress projects is testing an afghan pattern for a designer. So here I am almost done and decide to spread it out on the bed to see exactly how much longer I need to make …
A Few Spring Finished Objects
I’ve been alternating between several projects over the last few weeks. I’ve also been doing some pattern testing, but unfortunately it’s all hush hush and I can’t post any pictures until the patterns have been released. So I feel like …
Finished Object Friday
Another Friday, thank goodness! ((Oops, started this yesterday and went off to do something and forgot to finish)) Love the end of the week, problem is the weekend is way too short. I have to agree with my son when …
Not so good at maintaining even tension
So a week or so ago I posted my efforts and reconstructing a thread coaster that I liked but couldn’t find the original pattern. Since then I’ve made two more coasters. Using the same thread, the same hook and same …
Reconstructed Thread Coaster
Some many years ago I made a few thread coasters that I just love. Every now and again I’ve wanted to make a few more as the others have gone missing over the years or I’ve wanted to give as …
Finished Objects
Been working on a few different projects this week by testing some patterns for designers. I did manage to finish up a couple more blocks for my daughter’s afghan. I figure I only need two more now and it should …
Frogging…I hate it when I don’t pay attention
I really, really hate it when I don’t pay attention to pattern instructions and have to tear everything out back to where I initially made the mistake….can you say “rrriiiibbbbitttt”? I’m supposed to be testing this shawl pattern and half …
What I finished this week
Looks like I missed FO Friday and I have a few things to share. I’ve been working feverishly on finishing my daughter’s afghan which I’m making out of 12″ squares. I’ve actually been working on it for over a year …
Finished Object – Fri…ooops Saturday!
So it’s a day late but I wanted to show off the afghan that I finally finished, about a year and a half after starting it. This was meant for a long time family friend for Christmas in 2011…yeah, it …
Disco Jelly
Allow me to present Disco Jelly!! A little background first though. During our family Christmas my SIL found one of the little crocheted toys I had put out for the kids. It was this little jellyfish. My dear daughter immediately …
FO Friday – Icicle Ornaments
I made these cute little icicle ornaments for my daughter’s Christmas tree. It seems that she doesn’t have any of my handmade ornaments and asked me to make her some. This is what I have done so far. Which is …
FO Friday..a little early
I haven’t posted my finished projects in quite awhile…wow! Didn’t realize it had been that long. I was right, my dear daughter did not like the green cowl. She didn’t like the yarn, it wasn’t quite what she was expecting …
FO Friday — What did I finish this week?
Ok, seriously where has time gone? I was trying to remember if I even finished any projects this week…only one and that was early in the week. Obviously not much hooking time this week. I finally finished testing this Slip …
