My own crazy, mixed up pattern using leftover acrylic Red Heart yarn holding two strands, red and blue. It is very thick and warm.

My dog Sonny (on the left) wanted to get on the blanket so bad. He was a good boy and waited until I took the picture, then he jumped up.
My ripple is coming right along. It is really wide and I wanted it that way so my new son-in-law could wrap it around him. He is kind of a big guy! I’m having so much fun making this one. I need to buy more yarn though. I’m almost out already.

crochetWhere did I go wrong??
Eileen on September 22, 2009 in Afghan, Crochet, Yarn, flickr, handmade 1 Comment »Last week I was working on this ripple afghan for my new son-in-law. I was pretty far into it when I noticed one of my points were smaller than the others. So, I posted it on flickr and my good friends there not only pointed out where I had gone wrong, (way back in the beginining), but also helped me get started on a new one.

I can’t post the pattern because it is not mine but it has been so much simpler than what I have been trying to do. So, now you can see I have started a new one for him and it is going much smoother. I even like the colors better. I want to thank BrendaS and Mrs Twins for all the help they gave me with my dilemma.
Crystal Palace Mochi Plus yarn: Rainbow Scarf Day 1
Eileen on September 22, 2009 in Crochet, Yarn, crafts, handmade No Comments »I came home from work last night and took Sonny for a walk. We always walk down to the mailbox and pick up the mail after work. I was so excited when I opened my mail box and there was a soft little package. I didn’t dare dream it was my Crystal Palace Mochi Plus yarn from Jimmy Beans, since I just placed the order on Friday. Well, to my surprise, there it was! All the most beautiful, colorful, rainbow, that could possibly delight a person was wrapped up in three little balls! So I took lots of pictures of it trying to capture the color without any luck whatsoever. It is more beautiful in person. Then I had to make something out of it immediately. It was too beautiful not to.

While I watched Dancing with the Stars, I worked on the one skein scarf from Patons free patterns. It is coming along nicely and so is Dancing with the Stars.
Who did you vote for? I voted for poor Chuck, the underdog and boxer. Of course Donny blew them all away which isn’t really fair, he has been an entertainer all his life. You know he could win. He has been dancing since he was 8 years old. What are the judges thinking? Personally, I’m a little burned out on Donny and won’t be voting for him. Probably because I grew up watching him and got sick of him back then. Oh well, we shall see what happens tonight when the women compete. It should be interesting for sure.

Scrapbooking & Photography Tips, How-To’s, & Papercraft Projects.
Welcome to my new Scrapping Blog, mostly about Scrapbooking, Photography, Paper Crafts and of course How-To's, Tips, and Free Projects for you to try. Some of my best photos and photo tips are shared here as well.
I am a Baby Boomer and I Love to scrap.
I Love my family and to scrapbook my family memories. I started scrapbooking before scrapbooking was 'cool' in 1999. My goodness it changes so fast and it is hard to stay up to date on all the newest trends. I have just started making cards for the instant gratification! Much faster and a smaller canvas then scrapbook pages. I still have to do a page or two here and there because I miss working with the photos and the journaling. I would love to be on a Design Team someday. Wouldn't that be fun?
I love to read and recently read Plain Truth by Jodi Picoult, Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen, The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski.
I love to listen to music, crochet, photography, walk my dog Sonny, a black cocker spaniel, and spend time with my children.
The Scrapbookin' Gal,
Eileen
