This sweater has some fall colors and some spring colors. The yarn is all from Miss Babs and is Yowsa. I used Old Gold, Garden Party, Zinfandel, and Dragon Claw. I use almost the entire skein of Old Gold, a good amount of Dragon Claw, and only a bit of the other two.

This sweater used a repeating pattern of a row of 2 half double crochet in the same stitch and then skipping a stitch. Then 4 rows of single crochet and chain in the chain spaces. I really like how those two types of stitches came together. In various places I used the pop of color in the garden party in the half double crochet stitch to accent.

Adults definitely need a bit of a lid to drink their wine out of.

I really like the cups with the half lids. I decided to make a few crab style. I first saw this style of cup on a demo from Alexandria Pottery and her jig. I have the jig, but I'm actually finding that while I love the shape the jig slows me down. I made so many mugs last year that making cylinders has become something my hands know how to do.

Just a cute little trinket dish with snuggle puppies.

I've had this placemat for probably 2 years and never used it. I thought it would make a good cheese platter for the bachelorette party. I ended up not putting feet on it so now to dry SLOW.

My sister is getting married in March and I am the matron of honor. We are doing a bachelorette weekend up in the Finger Lakes and I decided to make wine sippy cups for the party. The theme for the party is Rose All Day and I got ridiculus straws that look like diamond rings to put in them. I'm excited with how these turned out.


I will likely do these in a couple of different colors as I glaze them. Not sure yet it if will be all pinks and purples or if I'll throw in a few other colors. I've also batted around the idea of just using an underglaze on the lettering and clear glazing the outside.
