Tina's Shevron Cardigan

Here's the cardigan that I made for my daughter Tina. She of course hates being my model so she likes to make faces when I take pictures. I started this cardigan on Aug. 25th and finished it on Aug. 26th. I was surprised that I was able to complete it so quickly. Guess it helps that she's my skinny-minny. But she's very happy to have it.

3 new completions



The Latest is a Lacy Tunic from Coats and Clark. Done in Florens yarn. I will definitely be doing this one again in Black perhaps. I will be teaching this pattern in October.


This mile a minute scarf is of my own design. I'm planning on hosting a Crochet along at Juniper Place Yarns on Sept. 10 and Sept 17th. I'm looking forward to seeing how this pattern is received.



This is the 3rd Chevron Cardigan that I did just before teaching a class on this pattern.

Finding a new local yarn shop.




I discovered a local Yarn shop here in Quakertown Pa, found Nina and her shop the week before World Wide Knit in Public Day, and had asked her if she knew of any local events. She did not but went about to set an event up at her store. We had a great time. Here's a pic of the event. We made two of the local papers. In the Upper Bucks Free Press the Photo caption states as follows: "A number of ladies shamelessly commandeered a section of East Broad St, Quakertown, on June 12th to participate in the World Wide Knit in Public Day for several hours. It is estimated that perhaps more than 800 such "Knit-ins" took place around the world. No arrests or citations had yet taken place at the time this photo was taken, though sources indicate that "Nina" of Juniper Place Yarns may have instigated the gathering locally."

Who knew that my new favorite store would hire me to teach crochet (which I absolutely love to do) I'm in seventh heaven doing something I love to do

Lady Bug Doily


Wow, what a bad winter storm we had overnight, we have over 12+ inches of snow, those south of us had more snow and in some places even had lost power. We were under a snow emergency from 5pm friday to 5pm tonight. Getting ready for the SuperBowl tomorrow, it should be a very good game. But here is # 8 completion of the year a Lady Bug Doily, that I just finished this evening.
