Ribbed Dog Sweater
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: For my sweet baby boy Elvis
I crocheted this cute little Ribbed sweater for Elvis in a couple of days. I made it a little smaller then the pattern called for, because the one in the pattern was way to big for him. I used Red Heart yarn, the color Sierra. The pattern can be found at

Now Playing: Aunt Maggie's Slippers

I have knit a pair of slippers for my Son in law, using my very favorite slipper pattern. I have made dozens of these slippers for family and friends. They knit up very fast and are very warm when knit with two strands of wool held together. The pattern can be found at

Thank you Ann
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: Native American Support
Dear Ann, Thank you so very much for the Kool wool yarn. I just love the colors. Beautiful fall colors. Claret, Khaky, and Jeans Blue. I am not sure what I will use the wool for yet. Maybe hats, or maybe mittens, or maybe slippers.
And Thank you also for the beaded stitch markers. I have never had beaded stitch markers before they are so Cool. Did you make them? I am knitting a hat right now for my husband , and put one of them on my needles already.
