Coming Through


The blanket is coming through the loom and boy is it soft. (Remember, this blanket is done in bulky weight Red Heart Baby Clouds.) The loom itself is 15 inches long. It isn't hard to get used to. When full it makes a blanket 48 inches wide (that is what the instructions say) and how ever long you wish to make it. If you use the tube wrapping goes fast and it doesn't take long at all to do a row. I am really impressed with this loom. And I plan to buy some more from
http://www.cindwoodcrafts.com/index.php. Check out her looms. They are very well made and service is excellent.

I am now looking at one for 1 over 1 using sport or worsted weight. Be sure to check out Cindi's looms.

Doing what I love


This is me crocheting for Global Health Ministries, part of our Loves Many Cloths projects. The picture is for America Responds with Love, another organization that we make cloths and other items such as baby hats, booties and blankets for. In the box are bandages. The box is almost full and will soon be sent.

If you love to crochet come join us. You will see the link on the bottom right side of the page.

New Projects
















The first pic is cloths done on the loom. The purple one is done in very soft Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece. The natural and green varigated cloth was done in Peaches and Cream. I want to thank Elmore Pisgah and The Brown Sheep Company for there donations to Loves Many Cloths. It is deeply appreciated.

The 2nd pic is my new infinity loom. I have started a baby blanket in Red Heart Baby Cloths yarn. It is bulky so my wrap is only 1 over 1. It is just about ready to come through the bottom. Will post again when there is some length to it. I am sure I am going to have to buy some more yarn to finish this one.

Cone Holder


Hubby made this for me to put my cotton cones on. I love it. My cones don't fall over anymore. I did have to ask him to make another one for me since I have different projects going at one time. I think most of my friends do that too. We sure don't get bored.

Praising God for the Colors of Spring
















Loving the coming season with all its splendor. Spring is truly here in the Panhandle of Florida!
And this is just a few. Look around and see how many glorious colors you can see.

Moving Right Along

Moving right along with my bandage loom. As you can see I am using 100% mercerized cotton. The process is starting to speed up a bit. Now I must admit there are a few other things in the works too. Having fun with them all. I am enjoying doing the bandages this way.

DID IT
















OH my so sorry for the blurr. Can't you tell I am still learning? Well this is my very first Double Pointed Needle hat. It is supposed to be a spiral. Think I will try it in a solid color next. Maybe the picture will be better too. So much fun. Need to get back to it.
