Lacy Dish cloths
Mood:  happy
I have knit a couple of Lacy dishcloths, using Bernat Handicrafter cotton. I love the colors of this yarn It is a very soft cotton also. The patterns can be found here at
http://smariek.blogspot.com/  Smariek blogspot. I love her dishcloths. She has said that many of her cloths can also be knit into scarves, and I agree. I think that later in the year I will use a pattern of hers to knit a scarf. The cloth on the left is called Fountain Lace cloth. The cloth on the right is called Small Arrow Cloth. I am going to crochet potholders to go with these cloths, and they will become part of gift sets that I will make up.

Cat's Paw scarf

I knit this Cat's Paw scarf using Sensations Rainbow Boucle yarn. The color of the yarn is burgundies. It started out a deep burgundy then got lighter as I knit the scarf. The color change is very gradual. The pattern for this scarf is at http://www.straw.com/cpy/patterns/scarves/kidm-catspaw-scarf.html

Grandma's Potholders, and A little Lace kitchen Cloth
Mood:  happy

I knit these potholders, and dishcloths, and put them together to form a gift set. The pattern for the potholder can be found at http://www.potholderlady.com This is my very favorite potholder, I use this style all of the time. It is crocheted, and works up very fast. It is the perfect size, and thickness for a potholder. The Lace kitchen cloth can be found at http://docs.google.com/View?docid=dfxhvq2x_45cqhzdx   I used Bernat Handicrafter cotton ultrasoft in the color called summerset. I am going to use this potholder and dishcloth set as part of a gift for my husbands cousin, she is getting married in January.

Red Scarf Project
Mood:  cool
Now Playing: Feather and Fan scarf
I knit a red scarf for the Red scarf project. When I was looking through my yarn to knit this scarf I found that I had 3 skeins of red yarn. All 3 of them were different shades of red. I could not figure out a way to make all 3 of the reds work together so I decided that my scarf for this project would be red and white.
I told my 18 year old son about the Red scarf project, and he said to make sure that I knit a cool scarf. I guess that he didn't want any college students walking around with an un-cool scarf on.
I choose this pattern because I thought that it was cool. It is a fan and feather pattern. It was very easy to knit. The pattern can be found at

Diagonal garter stitch scarf
I used Lion Brand Landscapes yarn for this scarf in the color Raspberry Patch. I used size 11 needles, and did a simple Diagonal garter stitch to make this scarf. If I make this scarf again I think that I will put a border into the pattern. The scarf would have been a little wider with a border. It measures 5 1/2 inches wide, and is 57 1/2 inches long. I used 3 skiens of yarn to knit this scarf.
