Are you sensing a theme? I couldn’t resist making one more washcloth in that spike stitch pattern. It’s a simple design so it works up quickly but has just enough change to keep me interested. Obviously – since I’ve now made three of them! I think I’ll take a break and do something else next […]

FO Friday – baby washcloths
I may only have an almost-4-year-old daughter, but most of our friends have children that are much older – and some are empty nesters. One of those friends has a daughter who was married last fall and is expecting a child just after the new year! It’s hard to believe because I’ve known Bonnie since […]
FO Friday – the July edition
I wish I had more to show for July. It seems like I have accomplished more, but I guess not. Let me start with a simple project, but one that’s been sitting on the floor of my craft room for a few weeks (as evidence of wrinkles would indicate). I didn’t like the way this t-shirt […]

I grabbed a couple of odd skeins I had in my stash, a circular […]
FO Friday – doily and washcloths
If you read this blog earlier this spring, you may know already that I “finished” this doily a couple of months ago. Last weekend I made myself a list of projects that needed just a little push before I could mark them off as complete. As a result, I finally blocked this doily. *sigh* Each […]
