Crocheted Round Ripple Blanket

Crocheted Round Ripple Blanket


I'm just in love with this blanket.
It's a very easy pattern to follow along to. 

I got the pattern from Ravelry. All you need is to 
sign up for free. 
Pattern here:

Rainbow Ripple Baby Blanket 

It took me a week to get it finished. 

I would get my girls to bed and sit and 

watch my shows and crochet away. I did 

work on it a few times during the day. 

Nice thing is you can make is smaller or bigger. 

I would like to make one that is bigger for my bed. 

My oldest is in to spiderman. I'm going to make one for 

her for Christmas. So that one will have to be done in secret

after they go to sleep. 

 

If you make one I would love to see a picture of it. 

If you can't crochet and would love a crocheted round ripple blanket.

Making your own hand carved stamp

Making your own hand carved stamp


I have been looking for some yarn stamps. 
I found one but it was smaller then I wanted. 
I just ordered one and really wanted 
it to be personalized. So I thought
I could put the words I wanted around it. 
So I went to youtube to see if I could find a video.
Here is the first one I found. 

Making your own hand carved stamp
Materials: 
- Rubber (Speedball Speedy is what I used)
- Carving tool (I used Speedball Linoleum Cutter
- #2 pencil
- Tracing paper (optional)
- Xacto or retractable blade knife
- Stamp pad
+Paper

1) I first found a design I liked and then just traced over it with my pencil. 

2) Once I traced over it all. I then placed it on my speedball speedy rubber and taped it down to hold it in place. With the back of my speedball linoleum cutter I used the back and pressed down a bit to get the pattern onto the stamp. 
3) Then I started to cut out. Which was a lot of fun. It did take time but I turned on some music and went to work. 
 4) Once I got it to how I felt was good enough. I did a stamp to see how it looked. 

 I was very happy. I had a few spots that needed touching up. I really thought there would be a bit more since it was my
first time. 

Once cleaned up. I did one more stamp test. 

 I can't wait to make more. 
If you try one let me know how it goes and what you think. 

Happy Crafting!!!

Roses

My Rose




I got a couple of rose bushes at the beginning of the summer.
(Tea Rose White Heart)

With our cold winter last year. It killed both my rose bushes. 
I was so sad. So this year we are going to bundle them up even more. Just in case of another cold winter. Lets stop talking about winter. 
So I got two new ones and have been waiting for them to bloom. 
For awhile they didn't seem to be doing anything. So I move them. So they would get pretty much sun all day long. That did the trick. 
They both started to grow fast and get one got buds really fast. 

 So far only one has bloomed. My other one I just noticed
some buds. I can't remember which one I got. I can't find 
the info I had on them. I know when I don't need the info
anymore. I will find it. Isn't that how it goes. 


 I just had to share my excitement. It's been a while since I have 
gotten some good roses. It has been the perfect year for them here. Not to hot or cold. Once the other one starts blooming. I will get 
some pictures and share those with you.
Happy Gardening!

Black light yarn

Black light yarn



 I found some Black light yarn at Walmart. 
I was going around looking for the 
Reflective yarn. I couldn't find any 
around my area. So I went onto Etsy and 
found some. I"m going to make my 
oldest a hat out of that one. 
 
 Sorry it's not the best picture. I'm going to work
with my hubby tonight and see if we can get 
some better pictures and see if a video will 
get a better idea of what it looks like. 

I will say it is really cool when you see it in person.

Inspired Cabbage patch Doll Hat

Inspired Cabbage patch Doll Hat




I have had a few request and a few thought I would love to make one. 
So I got out my brown yarn yesterday, turned on a movie
and started to crochet. 

I pulled up the picture and made one up as I went along.  
I'm one that love to come up with my own patterns.
I just did a regular beanie hat and then did a loop stitch for 
a few rounds. Then added some ponytails. 

My girls are in love with it. 
 

I love it too.
