Baby Blanket!!

I finally got the Baby Blanket done. It took me forever to get it done, but wanted to get it done before I started another project. To many UFO's on the needles and wanted to free them up:)

I used a little Crochet boarder around it to finish it up. I really like how it turned out. Now on to the scarf that I have been wanting to do for so long!!!! :)

April Dishcloth KAL

Here is the April Dishcloth KAL. This one was also created by Lindy and is called, "The Meadow". Thanks Lindy great job!! It is the perfect spring cloth. I would never have thought of using bobbles for flowers, that was a great idea. The bobbles were easy for me, I have done them before. I am finally all caught up on the challenge and have all my cloths on my blog!!! :) I can't wait for the April Mid-Month cloth to start. Always wanting something new to start. I am still moving along on the baby blanket. I should have it all done in the next few days. I am going to Florida for a little chill time with my husband, so want to get it done and start the scarf that I have been wanting to do, and plan on taking that with me..........so off to work on the baby blanket. I will post pics as soon as I get it done!! 7 cloths done..........17 more to go!!!

Mid March Dishcloth KAL

Here is the March mid-month dishcloth KAL. It is a fun one. I have made a few of these in the past. They are Illusion cloths. This one is of a Bunny for Easter. In the first picture you can only see the blue and white stripes, but in the second picture taken at more of a horizonal level, you can see the picture. These are always a lot of fun. Thanks Cheryl for the pattern!! Ok that is 6 cloths down and 18 more to go. I am having so much fun with this challenge!! Almost have the baby blanket done so I can start on the scarf that I want to do.

March Dishcloth KAL

This is the beginning of March Dishcloth KAL and it was really a great one. This cloth was designed by a very talented young lady, her name is Lindy. This cloth is called "The Empty Tomb" and is for easter time! I am a little behind getting this posted. Thanks Lindy for the great pattern!! Go check out her blog and look at all the things she makes. http://madebylindy.blogspot.com/ Well that is 5 cloths down and 19 more to go!!

I have entered a contest. I don't do these very often, but thought it would be fun. Go and check it out of you want to enter......go to http://modestpurls.blogspot.com/ Have fun!! Wish me luck!!

Other Projects

Here are some pictures of some other things that I have been working on. The baby blanket is about 3/4 of the way done. The pattern is from a dishcloth pattern that I got from Sue Shaefer's Harvest Moon Designs. It is called Easter Grass and instead of casting on 40 I cast on 160. I am using size 10 1/2 needles and Bernat Softee Baby yarn in Light Purple. It is really turning out pretty, I want to crochet a white border around it to finish it up. I promised my DH that I would not cast on anything else except KAL's until I get this blanket done!!! Ugh am I crazy?? So I am knitting like a crazy woman trying to get it done!! ( I have to cast on my first pair of socks!!! ) Also, I am knitting little baby wash cloths to go along with the blanket as a gift to a friend that is having a baby! Well off to work on the baby blanket......my sock yarn is just sitting here waiting to be cast on!!! lol

Feb. Mid Month KAL

Here is the Feb. Mid Month KAL. The name of it is "Finders Keepers" and is designed by one of my favorite people Sue Shaefer, and the link to her site is here on my blog. It is "Harvest Moon Designs" and she has wonderful patterns for sale, and some free ones also. Thank you Sue for this wonderful pattern for us all to knit this month, I love it. I was not to thrilled with the colors we were to use......"Verde Green & Mauve" but love the pattern. I posted 2 pictures of the cloth 1 up close so you could see the little windows in the pattern, and the other of the full cloth. I will make this one again with different colors. Maybe a solid and a ombre!! I am so glad this is a short month, because that means the next KAL starts on Saturday!!!! I am ready to start!! 4 down and 20 to go........I am keeping up with this challenge!!
