Yarn Stash

A friend happened to mention that she was cleaning out her yarn stash and was going to donate 3 large trash bags to the Goodwill.  I begged her to let me poke through it first and the result is this awesome assortment of yarn that will keep me busy through the coming winter!


There is also an assortment of balls that I keep in a large basket.  I feel like I hit the yarn lottery! 

The top shelf in this pic is actually some Cascade Yarn that I purchased from Craftsy.com at an amazing $1.30 per skein.  Not being able to resist a good deal, I bought 40 skeins of it.  At this rate I'm going to need a much bigger shelf...

Cardholders

It all started with a simple Crochet-Along. A harmless little activity that brings fellow crochet fanatics together.  Rachel Choi, who runs a great website called The Crochet Spot put this together and offered up a free pattern for a cardholder .  If you're like me, your wallet is bursting at the seams with loyalty cards and gift cards.  This handy little cardholder pattern is just the ticket for organizing that pile of cards.  It also provides a unique way to package gift cards for gift giving, and it's the perfect project for using up scrap yarn.

Seattle Seahawks Blanket

A good friend is a football fanatic - and specifically a Seattle Seahawks fan. She watched a game at our house recently, snuggled under a thick blanket I crocheted for my daughter.  By the time the game was over, I had committed to make her a blanket in Seahawks colors. I wanted to try a new stitch - something completely different. So I zeroed in on this . I am really happy with the unique design and the way the colors work together.  I finished it off with 2 rows of single stitch in the dark navy, and 1 row of double crochet. Now my friend has an awesome blanket to wrap up in as our Seahawks embark on their best year yet!
