Sweat Pea Afghan CAL

I finished clue #2 and I love the pattern so far. I am also very happy with my color choice. Can't wait to see how it continues. And since it is Friday, Mr. Moose (the monster) had to be in the picture.

Yarn Things

I finished the 'Surf' shawl and I am happy with it. The pattern is very nice and I made the smallest size to wear it as a scarf, the yarn is Caron Simply Soft Light in Hawaiian Sky from my stash.


I finally gave in to my curiosity about the Red Heart Scrubby yarn after I found a cute pattern for a dishcloth. The yarn is pure polyester and has little sparkly things in it. I was wondering how it would feel on my hands when working with it and if the sparkly things would end up all over the house. I was pleasantly surprised, the yarn feels much softer than expected and the sparkly things stay in place. The balls are rather large and I see more scrubbies in my future.


Two more squares have been added to the Petals and Diamonds blanket in the making.



And because I have only 16 (cough, cough, blush) yarn WIPs I decided to join Julie Yeager's Mystery CAL for the Sweet Pea Afghan.


This little guy is waiting to be turned into a pillow cover, hopefully in time for Halloween. Another Julie Yeager design.

Leftover Yarn

Whenever I have a lot of yarn remnants from various projects I make giant granny squares as blankets for the cats.
