Forays into Crochet

I have a hook, and I know how to use it.

I made this jacket for my sister-in-law for Christmas.  The picture of the back of the sweater looks a little odd - that's probably a combination of the fact that she has her hands on her hips, and the fact that there was supposed to be a frog-type closure for the front at the waistband, which I chose not to include.  

I shortened the openwork section on the bottom of the back - I made it about half the length.  I also added Fun Fur trim to the sleeves and around the outer hem.

I used TLC Essentials Fusion, TLC Essentials Razzle, and Fun Fur Raspberry.

That's Aimee in her Christmas morning outfit. :)

This little afghan was soooo much fun to make!  I will definitely be repeating this pattern in the future.  I really like the color combination and was pleased with how nicely it turned out.  This one took me a bit longer, because it called for a smaller hook than Tiffany's, but it still took less time than a regular size afghan.  For this one, I let the parents choose the pattern, but I chose the colors because they hadn't really picked any out yet.

I was really pleased with the results. :)

I can't remember which yarns I used =^^=

This was my first baby afghan.  I made it for my brother-in-law and his wife for their first baby, a little girl.  I was really surprised by how quickly it worked up; I guess maybe because I was so used to doing full-size afghans?  I actually completed this afghan in approximately a week and a half.

For yarns I used (if I remember right!) TLC Baby in White, and Powder Blue Sparkle.
