The beginning...

Hello!
Welcome to my small part of the internet. Pull up a chair, relax, read - have some fun =)

I've decided that it's a good idea to put all of my craftiness into a small...diary if you will...to see what I do, and show what I do. Since moving out to Pennsylvania from Wisconsin, I have really picked up the crochet and knitting needles and bring my skillset to a new level. I've really been working hard at getting my project difficulty up there. That being said, here is my first "show - and - tell."

My big sis from my sorority let me know about a month ago that her and her hubby were pregnant!!!! Being the good lil sis that I am - I whipped up a baby blanket for her. She's due in November - I finished the blanket last week. Haha, I was just so excited. This is a Tiramisu Baby Blanket. I used Lion Brand Pound of Love in Antique White.

Now I am working on getting all of my WIPs done. Not a huge list, but they are coming along. I've got a blue cardigan, a gray cardigan, a felted project bag, a 5 panel baby blanket, and reading shawls for Christmas gifts. I've joined the UFO CAL at the Ville to help me out with this. And the Christmas CAL to get me motivated to get all of my gifts ready to go.

I'm also keeping my fingers crossed that I get my first Jimbo crochet hook. If you're reading this - keep you paws off! =) No bidding until after 10 pm PST on Monday!!! lol.

Until next time, I'll keep you updated on my progress and any happenings that are going on this way. Thanks for reading.

Hay Tristan! You were the high bidder!
Hope your new Jimbo hook makes things as nice as what I see here.
Thanks!
