I found a crochet shawl pattern that I am completely gah-gah over! It's called the
South Bay Shawlette from Lion Brand's website. Who doesn't love a freebie!!
Look at the back!! I added the trim on it, using some Noro. The red actually has a little gold thread in it. I got it for Christmas from a fellow yarn lover.
Looks just as pretty as a scarf. Well, I liked it so much that I made another in this pretty green yarn I have been holding onto for about five years now.
I believe it is some by Caron Collection. The little ruffle is some hand dyed wool I got from SAFF. I really should do better on keeping track of the yarns I use in my projects. I always seem to loose the labels by the time I finish something up, and my brain just can't remember names that well.
It just looks like fall...I cannot wait, although I am enjoying spending Sundays at my folks floating in the swimming pool. LOL!
I will say, if you like making those half granny square shawls, you will love this pattern. It is pure stress free, movie watchin', yarn pron fun! And yes, I have another started in a sock yarn, which I nabbed at
Miss Bab's booth at Saff for $10 a skein! I don't have any pictures of it yet, but trust me, their coming!
Yesterday I spent the day cleaning a my dirty house and crocheting. It rained all day, pure heaven, a nice clean house and then crochet time. Rooster Crochet Time!
Their so full of happiness. I actually made them for an etsy order. I had fun doing all the little embroidery stitches on them.
I'm off now, going to try and squeeze in some more crochet before Monday gets here!
Peace
Dawn
