My first ever Starghan

Here is my first ever starghan. I got the pattern from Angelcrafts it's called 'Six Point Round Ripple Baby Afghan' I used Caron Simply Soft in White, Orchid, and Iris and a H hook. It was easier to do then I thought it would be. It just took me so long b/c I work everyday so I barely had time to work on it. Here it is in it's progress up until the end:




Well that was the stages of it and now it is ready to go to California when I get some more stuff for the soon to be born baby girl. I have two more to make for a boy and girl.

Look what I did for my moms' doll

This is the book I got the pattern to do the dress for my moms' Cabbage Patch doll. It's the pink dress that is on the cover. I had to use a bigger hook(H or I) and Caron Simply Soft in Watermelon and Grape.
Here is my moms' baby in the outfit. She is too cute it took me about a day seeing as I had to go to work but it worked up fast. I had to add more rows in the watermelon color b/c it was seven ros then the purplr but I did ten rows then the purple. The booties I just did a tube and then shell edged it around. Here is the outfit on the chair. It not as bright as it looks in the pic. My mom just loves the outfit which makes me happy.

Another Poncho set I did

Here are two more ponchos I did for my cousins' daughters. The one on the left is for her 8 yr. old and the one on the right is for her 3 yr. old. Both ponchos can fit me so they are big, but that is how their mom wants them. They are from the pattern on the Lion Brand site called the 'Groovy Granny Poncho' I just used smaller hooks seeing as that is an adult pattern.

Another baby set I made this time with a blanket

Okay I made this one for a coworkers' granddaughter's baby doll. The jacket is from Bev's site, the hat is also from her site the pattern is called, 'Teresa's 10 minute hats' and it takes on ten minutes. The booties are a pattern from a site called, 'Loving Hugs' the blanket is a rectangle granny square and the pattern came from a lady's blog called ErinLindsey's Pile of Yarn Granny Square pattern. Not only does she have the pattern but she also has pics which sometimes I would love to have both a pic and a pattern.
This is just a pic of the blanket I can't remember how long and wide it is but it would've made a nice baby blanket as well.

Two outfits I made to brighten a little girls' xmas

Okay this doll was once Lucys' but when I told her I was looking for a toy for a little girl for xmas, we both went thru her toys and she pulled out this doll and said that the little girl could have it for xmas. So of course I had to make a couple of outfits for it. This outfit I came up with on my own, ya know my own design the booties came from Abigail Goss' site called Crotiques(I think) and they are called 'sockies'. The hat is from Bev's site and the pattern is called 'Teresa's ten minute hat in which it did only take ten minutes to do. Here she is in her outfit and the back is closed in snaps which this was the first time doing snaps for me. It's not so bad doing snaps.
Here is the second outfit I made. The top I redid it with a pattern from a site called 'Angelcrafts' and the pattern is called 'Eyelet Shell Angel Top'. The pants I did myself I just added a big elastic band for the waist. The booties are once again from Abigail Goss's site the pattern is called 'Sockies'. The hat is a pattern from The Crochet Garden and the pattern is called, 'Tiny Blossoms Precious Preemie Hat' and it was very easy. The hat has ties for the child to tie the hat on the baby doll. I also gave the little girl who is 5 some crayons, a coloring book,the two outfits that came with the doll, a blanket for herself, A outfit I bought her from my job, and a nice bag to hold it all in. It was a Mudd bag I had that I used to use as Lucys' diaper bag so of course I kept it in great shape. I should be getting a thank you note from them and Ihope she liked her gifts.
