Some my my older WIPS

I am known for starting projects and then getting bored with them after a while. They why do I like starting big projects like blankets. Let me just say I started these before I really knew about other yarns outside of Walmart and Michael's.

I know I have mentioned the blanket my mom made for me when I was younger. She made one for my brother and my sister as well. I couldn't decide on what colors I wanted so she made it rainbow and VERY bright. It is made out of Red Heart.

This is the first project I started on after I re picked up crocheting. This was also the first pattern I EVER tried. It took me a long time and a lot of help from Stephanie to get the pattern from curling on itself (I think I kept decreasing stitches somehow) My mom liked how this was turning out so well she took it over from me. I have yet to start working on this blanket since.

This is the Kittens in a Row. I started this blanket when my mom took the above blanket from me to work on it. I got the pattern from one of my books, however it is found online as well. It is made from simply soft.

Here is the fisherman's throw I started. It is out of Caron's one pound in soft sage. I saw this color in the store and was all ooo that is pretty *yank* Now I can not even stand to look at this color. I need to make a lot more squares to make it a decent size. These are the few squares that I have put together.

I saw this pattern in one of my books and I really liked it. It is made out of red heart. The colors make it look like fourth of july and not christmas.

To reassure you I have finished some projects but these are my big ones that have been hanging out for a while.

Pics of WWKIPDay

We had a great time...

I was a bit worried at 10:05am when it was just me and Sandy (the event started at 10am)...

Me waiting for knitters on WWKIPDay

throughout the day there were about 15 people who came out to knit with us at the mall and we recruited some new members to our group! Here are some pics....

WWKIP Day

I just wanted to put a quick post up saying thank you to all who came out to support WWKIP Day. We had a great outcome (a total of 15). We met some great new friends and were able to show our love for yarn to many bystanders.

Thank you all!
