I am on the road with my hubby. Right now we are at Stratford Missouri. We are about an hr or so away from our drop off point. Rick paid for wifi for the night so I could check my email and stuff.

This picture is of the bridge going across the Mississippi River (Illinois/Missouri State Line). Yes Shari, it was freaky but I made it fine. And the other pic is of the mountains just crossing over into Missouri, I swear you could reach out and touch it. LOL

Oh and I started my shawl today in Illinois for my swap partner also. Will write more when I get a chance. Happy Crocheting!!

Well just found out that my hubby is flying(which he hates) to Cleveland Ohio to pick up his truck. Yeah he is coming home. He should be home around 4 or 5 am Saturday April 21. Then he will be home for five days and then I leave to go on the road with him for fourteen days. Happy Crocheting!!

Well I finished the round ripple, took the pic then loaned out my camera to my brother, so as soon as I get it back, I will post the pic.

I have started another round ripple for my other niece, this one is being done in yellow, varigated purple and a light purple. So far it's looking good. Then I have a little girl that my sister in law babysits that asked if I would make her one is pink and green. Not sure what that one will look like.

Just found out that one of my step daughters is having TWINS!!! We knew that the three girls was all pregnant, so looks like I will have to make double stuff.

My hubby will be home hopefully Saturday or Sunday, tomorrow will be four weeks he has been gone. For those that don't know, he is driving a semi truck and has been gone with a trainer. Can't wait to see him again. Yes I am counting down the days!!

When he comes home, he will be home for five days, then taking me with him for fourteen (14) days, will be posting pics of what I see also.

That's about it for now!! HAPPY CROCHETING EVERYONE!!!

Here is the update of the new round ripple afghan that I am making. I am using Red Heart yarn in Bon Bon Print, Pretty Pink and Lavendar, using an I hook. So far I am liking this afghan.

Currently I am making another round ripple (love doing these) in petal pink, purple and bon bon print all in Red Heart yarn and an I hook. Will show my progress on this as I go along.

I am also doing a shawl for my swap partner, which I still need to get the yarn for.
The dish cloth swap is done, just going to mail it hopefully tomorrow depending on the weather. Since we are getting SNOW!!! Can't believe it's the 11th of April and it is snowing. Also hope to send out my squares to the rest of the people for the square swap tomorrow. Wow I guess I am ahead of schedule on that one.


I made the Spiderman Round Ripple, but didn't do the webbing on it since I was told it didn't need the webbing. May still add it when I find the time to do that. I used a I hook and Red Heart Cherry red, blue and black. It came out from point to point 60 inches. Here's the link to the pattern. http://www.angelfire.com/tx5/angelcrafts/patterns/spidermanroundrippleafghan.html


This Cardigan I finally finished, actually finished it over Easter weekend. The only change I made was using an I hook instead of an H hook., which made it a medium size. I used Red Heart Plush in the color Bluebird. Now just need to get some buttons to finish it off.

Currently I am working on a cardigan. All that needs to be done is the sleeves. Been working on it for a couple of days. The pattern is from here: http://www.crochetkim.com/patterns/adultjiffy.html
Should be done hopefully today or tomorrow. I am using Red Heart Plush in the color Bluebird, so soft and am loving this yarn.


Well as promised here is the finished Rectangular Granny Square Afghan. I finished this a couple days ago and finally getting it posted.
