Christmas Presents

This is actually something I crocheted for myself with some yarn my mother brought me. I love yarn as you may have realize. This is a lap throw that I crocheted with double crochet stitches. It's a gold, white and off white color combination. I love it. It's just the right size to. It keeps me warm.

This is a Christmas I made for one of my love ones. It's a granny square afghan (blanket). I hope they like it.

Here it is again, you can see the squares attached to it. It's like a mosaic puzzle. My mother likes doing granny squares. In fact I taught her to crochet and I think she's got better than I have. It's a great craft to do and relax while you do it.


This is another gift that I'm making for a Pastor. It's military colors, standing for God's soldiers. I hope he likes it. So this is mostly what I've been doing, trying to make some nice handmade Christmas gift. I encourage everyone to make at least 1 homemade gift for a love one. It lasts memories of lifetimes.
Take care everybody, and Happy Holidays. I'll be chatting with you all later.

O.K. you've convinced me to pick up my crochet hook. I think it's been 12 years since I've done anything with it. But I used to do hat, scarfs, and afghans all the time. I hope I remember how.

Looks like you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Oh wow Fawn Dear, I had no idea you crocheted. It's wonderful to know a fellow crocheter. I know you will remember how to crochet, it's like riding a bike. You'll never forget how to do it, once you already learned. Happy crocheting, Fawn. :)
