Knit in Public Day

Yesterday was a blast! It was so nice to get out and meet others who are into crochet just like me! And seeing what others are doing and the variety of colors and textures was pure inspiration. I was sorry that I had to leave early.

I did get some work done on the gown in the three hours I was there. One sleeve is completed and the second one is half way there. All that is left is a bit on the back button band and adding a few more inches to the bottom. Will try to get some pictures up on my next post.

Happy Stitching my Friends!

Craft Party

For all those who are enjoying the Etsy Craft party today, I hope ya'll are having having fun. There was nothing planned in my area, so I am stuck watching tv and working on the Christening Gown.

However, there is an event called Knit in Public day, planned for Sunday at my local Books-a-Million. I will be joining my local crafters then, and bringing the gown along to make sure we crocheters' are represented.

Happy Crafting my friends!

Just Adding Lenght!

Just 6 more weeks till Mom is due, and the Christening Gown is now 14 inches from the shoulder to the bottom. I tried it on a Kabage Patch Kid, and it reached to the dolls feet. Just adding length now. I so can't wait for the birth of Sarah, and seeing her in this gown!

Another project I have started is a knitted blanket in Baby Bee Lambie Pie. I don't normaly knit, as evidenced that I had to make a late night run to Walmart to buy the proper size knitting needles for the yarn because it was to hard to see on my crochet hook, yet to fine for my Kniffty Knitter Looms. But hey, I got the yarn on clearance for two dollars off per skein, otherwise I never would have tried to play with it.
