My aunt stayed with us for Christmas this year so I made her this stocking based on stockings that my mother made, which were based on stockings her grandmother made. It’s just flannel, felt, and Red Heart yarn. The pattern matches the pattern that my mom, myself and my little sisters have.

Haley’s Ripple Afghan

Filed under: crochet — Kristin @ 7:19 pm

Lisa and Shaun’s Haley was born this morning so I rushed to finish the blanket I had started and bring it with me to the hospital. I followed the Easy Ripple Afghan pattern. The yarn is Caron Simply Soft 100% acrylic in Country Blue (9710), Bone (9703), and Sage (9705). I used a size H-8 crochet hook. I chained 98 stitches to start and got a finished size of about 26″ by 36″.

String Bag and Sunglasses Case

Filed under: crochet — Kristin @ 7:41 pm

I made String Bag for myself.  The yarn is Lily Sugar ‘n Cream 100% cotton in Key Lime Pie (02713).  I used a size G hook.  The only modification I made was to change the handle’s position to the sides of the bag.  Since I had extra yarn I decided to make a sunglasses case in the same style as the handle.
