Last weekend of the quarter, time to send the little guys away:
Also time to send the Chemo Hats to Bev: 
This week's bunch: 
Now they are ready in the box waiting for their travel adventure.
The Green Blanket for my next grand kid is done. What do you think, boy or girl? 
I have almost the second sock done with the Panda Yarn, and since Berets are in; I made a bright one for Nicky. She is not here right now, so Betty is doing the modeling:
$2.99
This pattern, is for intermediate level loomers.
It takes 51 pegs, on small gauge rake. It is done on lace stitch #3.
The yarn used is Aunt Lydias Shimmer Fashion.
Size is for a 6 years old.
$3.49
Hello! The little summer vest, for one of my princess is done; she turned 6 and today is her B-day Party! 
It is done on a regular gauge rake, on one of my lace stitches.
Love the Yarn.
4 Little guys: 
I didn't have much time, so they are just done on the Mitten Loom, from In the Attic.
I took my favorite board out, and started an afghan; this time with red heart. It is the honey comb stitch, with dark purple and lilac. It is 114 pegs wide, big enough. 
And last, I finished one sock with the bamboo yarn, I got last week. So far I love it, is really smooth and thin, I think it is going to become my favorite sock yarn, for all year around.
Well, have a great week, and remember to visit: http://www.gracielaspatterns.com/ and to click on the pictures for a larger view. Till next week!
Finally, I decided to put the toe-up instructions up.
This was written as a tutorial for the loom class group. Nothing fancy about it, just the techniques, it takes a 40 peg fine gauge loom, e-wrap and rib stitch. If you know how to make toe-up socks, this pattern if not for you; on the other hand if you want to learn how, you must get it. About 10 pages with step by step instructions and with plenty pictures to show you how. The price is $2.99.
Another week. Too many ideas, and no enough time. I am getting over Pink Eye, not fun!
I finished the lilac scarf, yes! finally! It is 72" long, and I like it very much: 
The sweater, just in case you are wondering, is done on 2 needles.
Then is the hats, 3 little ones and one big.
The summer vest, must be done by next weekend, B-day Gift.
And last is the sock! It turn out ok, but the yarn doesn't have any stretch to it. I ordered some from simply socks yarn; I can't wait to get it. Is some bamboo, with acrylic and elastic.
Mr. Egg wants me to make a sister for him, before Easter, but I don't think so. Do you remember him? 
You can find how to make him on the section for patterns or at www.gracielaspatterns.com
The baby blanket is still on the works, should be done by next Sunday.
Now have a great week!
Well, nothing, almost nothing, 4 hats done.
I finished the back of the sweater. I don't like it.
It is going to Frogging Land.
I like this yarn, and color better, so this is what is going to be.
And then I sarted socks on the Bernat Cool Crochet. Next week has to be better. 
See you then.
