Dishcloths!




I am now making dishcloths. I love them. I am going to be adding them to the fundraiser for my friend. I am currently seeking opinions on how much to sell them for. I want to make good money for my friend who has cancer. Anyway, I was told that making them with cotton yarn is best as they can be bleached if necessary. I really like the feel of them. I made these on the pink knifty knitter, used all the pegs and did 20 rows. They make a nice size dishcloth, not to big, not to small. Hope you enjoy!

Cocoon and Hat


I made this for my friend Ashley who has a photography business. I thought it would be a great prop for her. It reminds me of a pea in a pod. When I gave it to her she fell in love with it. I made an infant hat and also a toddler hat. I would love to make more of these, maybe a brown one to represent a bear.
For the cocoon I worked on the green loom, ewrapped and knit to 25 inches long. For the hat I used the small blue preemie/infant round loom and also the red loom for the toddler hat.

And it begins!

Just wanted to start a blog of my loom knitting. I will be adding new projects that I have been doing hopefully weekly. I want to write down tutorials of what I have done in the pattern so that others can create what I have done if they want. I have found that alot of places on the web do not have this and it becomes very frustrating when you really like a project but there are no directions to do it. So it begins! Hope you like my blog and hope you get some great ideas!
