Another Project Finished...

I have found out that sweaters/cardigans are not as hard as I thought they would be. In just this month I've made 2 cardigans for Allyson.
Boheme I:
And just finished today: Boheme II:

I made some modifications to this one: I added 3/4 sleeves and changed the lace pattern to make it different from the first one. In the original pattern the lace pattern is called "Tulip Lace" for this one I picked the "zig zag lace" from the book I got for Christmas "A Treasury of Knitting Patterns".
I am still on the hunt for a sweater pattern for Thomas, but I did find a pattern that I like for me, it is called "Shalom Cardigan." So that is my next project.

The first project of the year!

Here is the first project of the year!! Yippee! And the little miss loves it!





Now all I need to do is find a pattern for Thomas, so he has something he can wear other than hats, scarves and carry around blankets. It is a lot harder to find things to make for boys. I can't find any patterns that I really like. But I will keep looking.


I have found so many cute things to make for Allyson. I was thinking that this
it is called the "Cowgirl butterfly astronaut vest" would be the next thing that I make for Allyson or I may make another Boheme.

The latest projects....

Here are some of the most recently finished projects:

Cable Warmies for Allyson:
She has been wanting to wear skirts, but was complaining that her legs were cold, result was a pair of leg warmers, which she is called warmies, and I added cables to make it a little more interesting:



Her blanket, which she has been dragging all over the house and needs to sleep with every night since I finished it:




I also had some left over yarn and whipped out these hats for the Camillo brothers:



And there was just enough for one more hat for Thomas:


Cable hats for Allyson & myself: made with the leftover yarn from Allyson's blanket,





My projects for Christmas are:
1) Foliage Hats x3 maybe 4, I'm not quite sure just yet I just started on one today and am waiting to see how it turns out I make more.
2) Falling Water Lace Scarf x3
3) A lap blanket
4) Hats that match for the boys, since Allyson & I have matching hats.

Baby Shower Ready....

Hope that you enjoy your hat and blanket baby Daniel

Another batch of finished projects....

A black hat for Thomas, I used the black yarn left over from his latest blanket. The little dude is going to have more hats and blankets, since there is not really much that I can make for him to wear just yet.

And here is Thomas' latest blanket, which is now his favorite:






Hat and blanket for Jonas Camillo:




Two hats for Operation Christmas Child: we are doing this through our MOPS group, for more information check out this website: Samaritan's Purse

Now I am starting to work on blankets for the winter. I am making Thomas this blanket. It will have a border in black, and the center will be camo print (another army man blanket) which he wants for nap time at school. For Allyson I'm working on two blankets the first one is this and her other blanket will be this.

I think this winter I'm going to try to figure out how to make sweaters. :)
