Lamb Hat.. oh.. I want to make this..



I just found this really cute pattern on one of my followed Blogs.. Repeat Crafter Me. and I am going to be making these for sale.. I saw similar ones on
Etsy.. for $15.00 and up.. and I dont think that is a reasonable price.. soooo.. for the first one who orders this.. I will make it for you for $8.. just about half that cost.. (and this way I can get my demo model)..

Of  course.. you can make this on your own if you crochet.. smile.. here is the link to her page..

I got the first slipper almost done.. just got the tongue part and the tie.. and it will be finished.. I hope to have a picture tomorrow.. didnt have time today as I had to go for my 6th month hearing aid checkup.. now I won't be driving everyone crazy with feedback whistling..

My Update..

I have to say.. I spent the weekend and most of the week so far.. just enjoying the spring weather.. Sat we did alot of running around.. out to stores and such.. Sunday.. we hit the flea market and a couple of other stores.. and Monday hit still yet more stores.. lol.. guess it was too much for me.. cos I spent Tues recovering.. since my knee kicked out.. lol..

I am almost done with the slippers.. working off the loose threads.. and got her cat toy done too.. just need to fill it (and not at my house.. my cats would steal it!!).. plan on finishing that off today.. and starting still yet another pair of slippers while I wait for an update of measurements to start the Camisole.. Hope to have some pictures done..

Spent my points on Listia.. and got my towels and green bean seeds recently.. still have crochet magazines coming. smile.

Happy Dyngus Day



Just stopping in to say hi.. Nice day.. Brunch at my best friend's, then my boyfriend and I had a nice dinner of stuffed pork chops, scalloped potatoes and green beans.. was too full for dessert..even though we had peach crisp made... Hope everyone had a nice Easter..

New month.. time to put more stuff up on Ebay.. got some new patterns and VHS tapes to put up.. wonder if they will sell. Guess we will wait and see..

Oh.. forgot to update my crocheting.. almost got the first slipper done for my next order.. when my brain got too tired last night (watching The Walking Dead).. I made a crochet topped towel.. pics soon.. 

Dyngus Day is a Polish festival celebrated on the day after Easter.. Buffalo had a large Polish area.. so it is a strong festival still in Buffalo.. if interested.. check out this link...
