Finished Sons Blankie

Ok so i finished the blankie, I did it last week i have just been really bad about updating lately.....so it is not very big cause it is not for covering up with i just did it in a double crochet stich through out the whole thing......but here it is
I had made it to replace the one he had which was old and falling apart so this next pic is the new one along with the old one
so now that, that is done it is time to move on to the next one :) next up is I think going to be a John Deere hat for the hubby :)

Sons Blankie Update

ok so my son decided he didnt like what i was doing for his blankie and wanted it different......so i unstitched it all and re-started it just done in a double crochet instead of a pattern.....so here is the rework

doesnt really look much different in the pics does it?.....it is different you just cant see it......

Sons Blankie

ok so now on to the next project....my sons blankie....it is more of a Linus thing than a blanket....I found a pattern from Caron for a 1 skein baby blanket, and i spent 4 days with a ball of scrap yarn and a needle trying to learn to do the patteren this is my first pattern i have tried.....i still dont think i got it but i like what i am doing......
i hoped this pic would show about how wide it is going to be....
the yarn i am using is red heart super saver shaded dusk worsted meduim 4 here it is....
i dont think this one will take as long as my hubby's blankie took to make so we will see i guess....i will update again soon :)

I bet there are some good sales this weekend.......

I am gonna have to check out Joanns sometime this weekend, i bet there is a good sale going on there.  I already have my next 2 projects lined up i just have to finish my hubby's blanket.....i know i should be finishing that instead of blogging or thinking about the sales but I was thinking about the stuff i could buy just to have on hand........has anyone out there been to Hancock's? I seen one somewhere around here but have never been and if it is more expensive then  Joann's I most likely will never go.....our walmart doesnt sell fabrics......I am very disappointed about that.........anyways back to finishing my project so i can start new ones :) I hope every one enjoys thier 4th!!!
