Hightide


I found this in one of those linen booklet advertisements....I think it would be a perfect afghan crocheted in Vanna's Choice.  You could even find patterns to replicate almost 100% of the patterns.  This could be a feminine afghan in rosey colors, or purples, or you could man it up a tad more with darker colors!

This is going on my list of "to do's"!

Oops!

I forgot to take a photo first to show Liz I whipped up the Devil's Food Cake mix she sent to me! It was quite pretty and tastes great! No frosting needed.....

I see that I have posted several blog items, but they were saved as drafts....so I'll just get them posted and then change my settings.  Here I thought I was ahead, not behind, the game plan!

New Pattern's for Crocheted Squares

I am sure that most of you have already heard about the booklet quite a few designer's put together for the benefit of Pam Gillette,  of Knotty Generation - who is also a designer.  All, as in 100%, of the proceeds go to benefit Pam as she is struggling with cancer treatment.  I believe that she is finished with the chemo treatment now.  Check out the photo, in the link above, of this luscious afghan.

Follow this link to purchase Pam's Comfort Cables Crochet Afghan patterns.  There is an errata for those who might have purchased the booklet before 5/23/11, but if you get it now, the correction is already made.

As the site says:
