Back I hope!

After I hurt my back. We went right into the last months of school. Being my Daughters last year of elementary school before heading off to Middle School/Jr High they had a lot of activities going on and I helped out at the school a bit and went with on their field trips. So needless to say I haven't had much free time. Summer is here now so I hope to get back to some crafting and online time! Hope everyone is well.. take care.

Catch up... it's been awhile..

I'm still around. Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Lots of personal stuff going on... and I hurt my back so I haven't been able to sit long on the computer. But I promise to come up date and get some new pic's up soon. I've made some fingerless gloves and some iPod bags. be back soon

Changes to Posting Comments!

I'm still new to this so ....Thanks to my 11 year old daughter trying to post a comment I realized it was set to where people couldn't comment anonymously... I don't feel you should have to sign-up for any web site just to comment on mine. So that setting has been changed. By all means please do log-in if you already belong to one of the options or sign up if you'd like! It would be nice if you signed your post so I know who you are or even let me know how you found me (friend or from my profile @ Crafster, Ravelry, or Etsy.) But that too is up to you.

Most of all thank you for visiting!

Trial and Error

I've finished a couple more baby hats. (For those wondering Baby Hats are just what I'm currently into due to a sudden rise in babies and preg people I know, and I love it! I will do other things too.. )
Okay I've finished another 2 hats ... the first was a black and gray one that I planned on giving little tied ears but I should have used a single strand instead of two. It's a little to dense to gather. But it would be great for cold weather! The second hat I was experamenting to see if I could do a patchwork pattern. But the raw edge didn’t curl up and looked unfinished till I crocheted the edge and now it wont give enough for a hat… so it’s going to be a doll hat, a draw string bag, or I may redo the edging. If so I’ll post new pics.
For more pictures I added a link to my Flickr projects album to the left side. Next post I'll have some pictures of a baby beanie I'm making for a friend who's part of the Pogo tournament group I'm in. She requested Steeler's team colors gold & black.

Take care... april

Newer hats

As I look at the hats that I posted... I realize these are mostly older ones from when I first started making hats. As I said in an earlier blog, some of the knitted hats I made recently walked off as fast as I could get them off my hook. Of course I didn't take pictures... gerrr. Had quite a few knitted chenille hats that were adopted by my daughters friends.
But I have a couple more baby hats in the works that are fun colors I'll post here when I get them done.

Take care... April
