Crochet Longies & Knit Hats

It's been a crazy week. Josh has been on call and he's been getting called out a lot. Caymen is also in a mama stage. If she's awake, she wants to be held and entertained. So all of that, along with Halloween (our town did Trick or Treating last night) has made for a slow crochet and knit week. :( I have gotten some time today to work on projects and post here.





Miss A's longies are getting more and more beautiful every time I pick up the yarn. I find that this colorway isn't pooling very much at all, which is rare with crochet. There is a bit of stacking, but I don't find it to be horrible at all. This picture isn't the best, unfortunately it was not taken in natural light.



Yep, you are looking at my first ever knit project. A hat for Josh. It may not look like much, but this thing could be a skirt for Caymen....no a mini-dress! I love my husband dearly, but he has a huge head. I am knitting 8 inches before I even start the decreases for the hat and it is 26 1/2 inches around. So it is certainly a project. I hope to get it mostly finished in my knitting circle on Sunday.

Finished Longies & New WIP



This is a new work in progress I just started this weekend. Julibean's Anastacia colorway. It's working up nicely with crochet which is always a plus! :)




I just finished these for Caymen this morning! I love how they turned out and I hope they wear nicely for her.

Picture Re-Do


I just realized that the seam on those Marr Haven longies look weird in the pictures. I had the longies laying all wonky! Here is a better pic!






A New Finished Project!










These were just finished for Miss J. They are the crocheted Burgandy Heather Marr Haven from earlier. I love how the flare and ruffle turned out! So cute! :) I hope she gets a lot of enjoyment and use out of them this winter.

Current WIP and Finished Projects :)




These are longies for my daughter Caymen. I'm crocheting these using Fairyblue Dye & Knit's "Peppermint Patty" colorway on Blackberry Ridge Merino.




These are beautiful crochet longies on Burgandy Heather Marr Haven. I love the way the Marr Haven works up. So thick, perfect for winter.
