Marcy I made a blue and white continuous granny afghan for my inlaws for christmas a few years ago. I really enjoyed it myself. I think it is time to make another quilt... I will have to do it this winter. Just have to figure out what to make is the hardest part.

I made it up myself. Here is my pattern just for you gals.
Get a shower ring.
G hook or what ever you like the looks of
Double crochet I think it is 60 (I just do it till it is really full).
Work back and forth for as thick as you would like just double crochet ch2 at the end and turn. Go for how ever long as you like. For button hole just chain 2 and skip one st and dc till the end. Sew in ends and add buttons.
Hope this helps.

Stacy, I love the hats, with flowers!! So pretty!
I'm just starting a scarf for my youngest DD. She wanted one to match her ski jacket. My last project was a large hot pad for my DH. He always take things out of the oven, and wants to set it on the stove top. Sorry my dear, I'm using it. So, I made a big hot pad, and crocheted the word HOT into it, so he'd get it.;)
The tears I shed then, watered the flowers I harvest now.

Laura, I lurve your afghan! Thank you so much for taking the time to take a pic of it. It's a beautiful blend of colors. One day I may be as good as you.

I want to learn to do granny squares. I got on google and searched for videos. I found a few but the one lady was going so fast I couldn't get the 2nd row part. I will keep trying and will probably figure it out some day. I just want to make some granny square afghans so I can use up all this yarn I have. And they are so pretty too. I love the ones trimmed in black.

Kristin, I have a good pattern for granny squares that I could send you if you'd like. Once you get the hang of it, it's really easy.

I am crocheting paper raffia cowboy hats! The cute model is my DD. It is pretty tough at first, it doesn't give like yarn.

I finally finished a crocheted baby blanket and am just working on newborn hats everyday. I'm up to 12 now!

Julie, that's a cute hat! Could you possibly email the pattern to me? I'm always looking for new patterns to use.
One project that I'm going to start once I get the yarn is making a minion from Despicable Me. My cousin really wants one, and I think it'd be good practice for bigger projects.
