I went to Hobby Lobby yesterday. I always seems to find yarn on clearance there and some how it always seems to find a way into my shopping cart. Notice I said cart. I also seem to always grab a cart so I have plenty of opportunity to fill it up. Well I found 12 skeins of yarn yesterday I plan on making a mini shawl the yarn is a very pretty red TLC yarn. I just couldn't pass it up. And I have plenty of yarn at home to keep me busy but one can always use more right? Sale and clearance yarn just calls my name :)

Well after making the baby sweaters I was brave enough to make a hoodie sweater for my 2 year old niece. I gave it to her on her birthday and she love it. I was so happy. You never know if kids will like the things you make. Also I was very happy it seemed to fit her well with some room for her grow, just the way I wanted to to turn out. :)

I am soooo happy I finally got buttons on two of the little lamb sweaters I made. These are the first baby sweaters with buttons I have ever made so I think they turned out pretty good :)
I still have to put buttons on the third one I made that one is a purple one. The pink one turned out kind of big so I made the purple one on smaller needle so it would be a newborn size. Then for the muti colored I used even smaller szed needles for a preemie size.

Here is a sample of my first crocheted booties. I thought they turned out pretty good. I love the fact that there is no seams!!! Plus I think it is easier to crochet in round than to knit with double points.

I have been trying to make some hats and scarfs for the Stand Up for Kids. I really loved this scarf I made out of scrap yarn. Now I want to make one for myself :)

Here is an example of some hats I made this last month. I loved the pumpkins hats and the candy corn hats. They turned out sooo cute!!
I have been knitting for many years. My mom taught me to knit when I was a kid and recently started crocheting again to. Recently I have started making stuff to charity it has been alot of fun. The main charities that I have been knitting for are the Preemie Project, and Knitting for Children on the yahoo groups. I have also made items for Stitches from the Heart and Caps to the Capital.
