Homespun afghan
Got some yarn sale yarn from my friend Teresa and think that most of it was Lion Brand Homespun. I decided to make a giant granny square afghan and I think it turned out great!
Valentine’s Day Scarf
Made this scarf for Val from her mother’s yarn stash she gave me so she’d have something to remember her mom by 
Pink Ruffle Baby Blanket
Delivered this commissioned pink ruffle baby blanket yesterday. I made up the pattern and used Caron Simply Soft yarn.
Countryside scarf
This nice long scarf only took a couple of days to make. I used a simple fan stitch and used three balls of Sundance Countryside wool/mohair/acrylic yarn. However, because I hardly ever use patterns, I now have one ball leftover. Tassels? Maybe. I have 4 balls of another color so I’ll just make it wider!
Soft dune scarf
This is a very soft yarn because it’s a two strand yarn and one strand is mohair. The other strand is flashy making for a neat combination. I used a basic fan stitch and two skeins of Dune by Trendsetter Yarns.
Pink cotton candy scarf
This scarf is light and fluffy! I used two strands of yarn: lion brand homespun white and Nashua mohair in pink. I also used a basic fan stitch.
Pink shell stitch scarf
I finally learned a simple shell stitch and made this crocheted scarf. The yarn is valley yarns ‘Springfield’ and is 88% cotton and 12% nylon. It measures about 80″ x 6″ but I imagine will shrink a little after washing. I really like this stitch and will probably us it a lot more!
Pretty in Pink (Rose Quartz, Actually)
For another Christmas gift this year, I made another tube scarf on the small Darice round knitting loom. I call it Pretty in Pink (even though the yarn is Rose Quartz). The yarn I used is Patons Allure Rose Quartz and I used two skeins of 47 yards each. Someone this Christmas is going to be Pretty in Pink!
