Tuesday's trio..........

of Show & Share.........

This is a beautiful swap package I received from a lovely lady in a crochet yahoo group I'm in. She knitted a sweet little sweater style coffee cup cozy ... which she placed on a coffee cup filled with yummy hot drink mixes. She also sent along this really neat cloth. Its knitted in a basket weave look. The stitch is call entrelac... but hers in done in a garter stitch throughout.

These are a couple of Fall colored dishcloths I made. As you can see... one is just like the one I received in my swap package. Yep... I spent the day studying it to the point of going cross-eyed till I think I had the idea down.... and thats how mine came out. Mine is a touch bigger... I must have used a bigger size set of needles than she did.
And this......... This is a sweater I'm making for the newest addition to our family which may be today! That will make grandbaby #7 :) This sweater design is call 'Baby its cold outside' I still have sewing to do... edging .. and buttons to put on. I'm going to try and finish it today.
have a great day all..............
God Bless,

ps............. Shana ......... havent forgot about you my dear! I made a pair of mittens I thought would fit your little guy... only to find out they didnt fit my 2 yr old grandson... so its back to the knitting needles.............. :)

I love the "baby its cold outside" sweaters!

I made one for my youngest son, it was easy once I got started and went pretty fast. I'm definetly making one for the new baby. What yarn did you use?

I enjoyed making this sweater too!
I made it from Caron Simply Soft yarn with an 'I' hook. It came out to be a nice newborn/premie size.




God Bless

Thanks so much! If they didn't fit a normal 2 yr old they probably won't fit Blaze...lol. he has big hands and feet. the kid is almost 38 inches tall too. At this rate he will be taller than me and Chris in a year or two...lol.
