Crocodile shawl done

Sweet I finally finished this purple, black and blue crocodile shawl. Took me forever and kept running out materials or other issues that kept me from finishing. I finished 11-13-15. I gave Robyn one already. I may trade her for this one instead which was originally meant for her anyway. I don't know but I am glad it's done. I can now relax for awhile.

Whirli gig

Wow, I haven't made one of these in a long, long time. I almost forgot how to make this. I had a hard time finding the middle beads so I had to make due with another. It's not like the original and felt like old times of making this. I am not going to give out the details on how to make this for it takes time and I rather charge for the pattern. Sorry not trying to be mean just the way I feel about this particular project.

Some like a tail on the bottom, others prefer a diamond gem. I make a few different sizes. Extra small, small, medium, large and extra large.

Mermaid tail afghan

First time trying this
Started a new project while I wait for materials. Pale yellow and white.
I should start charging for these but if I can get the pattern free online why charge right?
I am so proud of myself I finished this project 08-20-15

This will fit a 4 to 5 foot kid. Very happy about how it turned out.

Hats and scarfs

If I have the energy I'll make knitted scarfs and hats but lately they haven't been selling or giving them away as I hoped. Guess they aren't as popular like some of the blankets.









This one is a scarf but it was to big for the picture. I had made a rainbow scarf and hat for my cousin. That was fun yet I wish I would of gotten more out of it than a thank you.

Crocodile queen afghan

Took 1 year 7 months to make this queen size crocodile stitch blanket.


I used red heart super saver yarn size 4.

I started with black and made a Blanket: 90" x 100"
I used a the regular pattern for a shawl and added my own to the sides and bottom. It took longer than I thought it would do the back and forth method of a regular crocodile stitch and hurt my hands.

I used single and double crochet on the sides. Double on the bottom of 5 rows and the rest for the crocodile stitch was double stitch. I finished this project 07-19-2015

Crocodile Stitch shawls

Crocodile shawls. I made 7 total. For me these only took 1 month to make sometimes 2 weeks if I have all the materials. You start out with a loop at the beginning of the triangle and add more total lines 80. again time consuming due to the crocodile stitches.

Finished 4-2015

Pillow

First time for me making a pillow out of crochet. I found the pattern for skulls and then used granny stitch around the middle.


I did two different skulls with the granny stitch then sew them together. I am always trying new things. Finished this in a week.

Pattern Cross stitch big

This project was very challenging especially on my fingers. This project took me three months to finish. I dislike this because the materials was missing some colors. Luckily I had some extra supplies in my drawer to finish this one. I do not recommend getting or making this again. I had a used frame that I wasn't using, added some colored paper for a frame and done.
