My Latest Creation

Here is my latest creation. I made this round ripple for my best friend/sister Nancy. It is made with Sugar N Cream cotton yarn. The color of the yarn is called 'Swimming Pool'. I tried to make it look like ripples in the water look. My crochet buddies at Crochetville.org think it does, so I succeeded in what I was trying to accomplish! I used a little bigger hook on this one since she lives in Florida. I didn't want a thick, heavy rounder for her. She will be getting this in August, along with another rounder plus many other goodies I have made her and will make her for before I go visit her. I haven't decided what I am taking down with me, and what I will leave here for when she comes up here. Decisions, decisions. I guess a lot will depend on how many things I end up completing for her.

Hilly's Afghan Is Done!!

Hilly's monster 3 strand Afghan is finally done!! I made this with Caron Simply Soft yarn in the colors of watermelon, chocolate and new white. I used a size P hook. It is over 6' long and is about 45' wide. This one took a little over 1 week to do. And I missed working on it for 2 days. Using 3 strands and a really big hook makes these work up fast, but they get real heavy real fast. This is not something I would make in the middle of the summer.
