Teddy Bear Cuddle Sack

I saw this picture of a grafted teddy bear and though I could duplicate it. So I crocheted it into a cuddle sack. I don't take credit of the grafting of the bear. I don't know who designed the graft.

Turquoise and White Baby Blanket

I finished crocheting this turquoise and white baby blanket this afternoon.

Baby Hats

Another Round Ripple Baby Blanket

I finished up this round ripple baby blanket tonight. It went very fast. I used 2 strands of the Universal Bella DK yarn held together with an I hook. It measures about 40 inches from point across to point.

Another 4th of July Preemie Blanket

I just finished crocheting this 4th of July preemie blanket tonight. Wasn't sure if this pattern would work or not. I think it turned out fine.

X's and O's Baby Blanket

I finished up this X and O mint green baby blanket last night. I struggled for 3 days to graft the x and 0 design, then frogged and refrogged many times before getting it to come out like I wanted. I have not written the pattern yet. Frank and Marie think I should sell it on Ebay to make money to buy more yarn. I know I put a lot of work into this one.

Frank's Hats

Frank has loom knitted 23 more hats these past couple weeks. We will keep these until next fall and then donate them to various charities.

Hats to lil_troopers

Shipped 22 hats to lil_troopers yesterday. Working on next month's donation.

Magic Ball Afghan finelly finished!

I finally finished this afghan made from a magic ball of yarn. I started it last fall. I was going to donate it, but dear daughter decided she wanted it and she wanted it 72" long. I have been working on it Tuesday and Wednesday nights while watching American Idol, the only tv show I watch every week. I will be starting another afghan soon as I have several magic balls to use up.
