Crocheting

I've been crocheting when I get the chance (which isn't a lot of the time, but now that winter tv is back in full swing I do it during LOST, The Office, 30 Rock, etc....) but I finished a couple of projects lately and thought I would share.

This is a Valentine's garland- I've made a couple now, but this is the only one that got photographed and at that, not even in use. I found the pattern for the hearts over at Bella Dia. This one is made from cotton and I like it alot better than the one I've made from acrylic yarn.


This is an afghan I finished for Max, I made one for Ella a long time ago, and thought it would be especially useful for Max because of the little hoodie. The wind here is brutal and he hates to have me just throw a blanket over him.


This is a finished baby afghan I started back in November and have finished this week. It kept getting put on hold. I love this pattern and think the stitching is beautiful!



And some dishcloths I started and finished in one evening.


I've started a pair of fingerless mittens for myself. Hopefully I'll have them done before the snow is all gone. I've also been experimenting with altering the pattern I found, so it's been interesting. Two rows down and three frogged, you know, that kind of project.

I've also got some beautiful yarn I'm looking forward to using it. Some I've been stashing for a while waiting for a wonderful pattern to come along for another baby afghan, and some wonderfully colored wool I'll be making a shawl from for a birthday present.
