Here is my work in progress! I'm trying to get it done in time for the county fair this Summer, but I find it's taking much more time than expected. However, I'm very pleased with how it's turning out! It's going to be a queen size bedspread, and is made mostly with Lily brand Sugar'n Cream cotton yarn, as well as Lion brand Cotton-Ease yarn.
I've really liked the combination of the two yarns. Sugar'n Cream is a bit stiffer, and creates really clean lines for good stitch visibility. The Cotton-Ease is super soft, and a total pleasure to work with! It adds a flexibility and coziness to the blanket, and works well with the Sugar'n Cream.
I'll keep you posted on this project. ;)

A New Beginning...
I love to crochet! I have many different artistic bents, and will be carrying out new projects all of the time that I would love to share! I hope you enjoy!
These are squares for a bed spread that I am working on. There will be a detailed post about this project in the future...
This is a hat I designed and made for my dear friend, Ingrid.
Here are a couple of sweaters I designed and made. I entered them into the Deschutes County Fair in 2012, and won a blue and a red ribbon. The one on the left was my very first sweater, and I was quite pleased with how it turned out. The one on the right I made for my niece, Macy. She picked a pink and green theme, and I added in the off white color. I was THRILLED will how this sweater came out! I'll post more detailed pictures of these projects at a later time.
