Have done quite a few more hats and made progress on another baby afghan for someone at work.  Have also started an afghan in light blue for my bosses daughter who is pregnant.

Have also made 3 coasters with white crochet thread got for free.  My moms friend brought a bag of yarn and knitting looms that someone left at the dump.

Have been busy making hats and hope next week to go to visitors center and talk to them about selling my hats.

Have set up page on Facebook for Cryscrafts.  Made 3 hats so far.  Attaching pictures.  Facebook page is under Crystal Toller and is called Cryscrafts.  Am working on loomed adult hat now.  Am plan ng to make up bunch of hats for stock to sell through my page and also at local visitors center gift shop.  Prices are 6.00 for newborn/premie hat, 8.00 for baby/ toddler hat, 10.00 for adult hat and 12.00 for larger hat plus shipping.  Baby afghans are 15.00 plus shipping.

My moms friend came by last week and brought me a garbage bag full of yarn.  It also had 2 looms in it.  One is a 4 loom set by knifty knitter and the other one is a small loom from Michaels.  So excited because I have wanted some knitting looms for quite a while.  Have attached pictures.

Thursdays is a UFO day in one of my yahoo groups.  So tonight I managed to start the backstitching on my autumn block and get some done.  I also started another baby blanket.  Will have to get one more skein of yarn when this first one runs out to finish the blanket though.  I found a pattern for a knitted ripple afghan so may buy me some circular needles soon so I can start this blanket.

Will post a picture of the autumn block when all the backstitching is done.  Hope to get the backstitching finished this weekend so I can work on my Joan Elliott Angel Stocking for my new baby cousin.

Happy Crafting!!!

I have recently been doing a lot of crocheting.  I have completed a single crochet scarf, and a baby blanket.  I also have done all the cross stitches on a free autumn block design from clouds factory.net.  Attached are pictures.

Have managed to lose the 2 designs I had done for my new baby cousins.  I had gotten all the trimmings to put them together and stuff them as ornaments and now cannot find the original designs.  Have to start all over and they will have them for next year but I am really mad at myself for not keeping up with them.  Have cleaned my room and organized all my stash trying to find them and no luck.  So upset.  Ah, well, will just make new ones.  One of the originals was really complicated and an intricate design but new one will be simpler because just don't have it in me to do another complicated one.  Will post pictures when I am farther along.

Have been in  on crafting for past few weeks.  Tuesday, I did put in some stitches  angel stocking. Made a huge mistake so had to frog and start over from the beginning.  Posting picture here of current progress.  Work slowed down on November 20th and did not have anything for couple of weeks.  So far have had one day last week and 2 days this week and will have one day next week.  Hopefully after the holidays it will pick up again.

Hope to use some of my free time to work on projects.  Need to finish 1 ornament and stitch and stuff another one so hopefully I can get them in the mail.
