Some Crocheted Items

 I find it hard to sit and just watch TV or a movie .  Quilts aren't as easy to take with you so I always have a bag of yarn and enjoy making dish clothes, hot pads, stocking/beanie caps, and some hot pot holders.  I've also made several baby shawls and afghans.  Here are some pictures of some of my creations:


This stocking hat is made on a loom and I can make it larger.  i do have a smaller one but it barely fits a preemie it's so small.  I could make daughter and her doll a hat alike.


 These hats are like a beanie style hat but they fit nicely on your head.  I can also do a matching scarf to wear with your hat.









I love to make and use dish rags that have been crocheted.  I have several designs that I can use.  One is a shell pattern, another is an open double crochet stitch, and I can combine the open double crochet with several rows of single crochet.  It just depends on how thick you want you dish cloth.  I also can do the size according to what you enjoy using.  I love using variegated cotton yarn because it's so colorful but I can also use plain cotton yarn, too.











I like to make and use these double sided hot pads.
They also work nicely as hot pot holders on your nice wood table, too.
