Yarn Along ~ C2C afghan

"The Yarn Along began in early Fall 2010 as a way to share knitting projects and good reads; motivating ourselves, and inspiring each other. Every week knitters, and a few crocheters as well, link up and share a photo (or two) of what they are knitting and what they are reading. Knowing that Yarn Along Wednesday is coming up is a great way to stay motivated to finish those projects! And I, for one, am always on the lookout for a great book recommendation as well."

If you enjoy the Yarn Along, I invite you to grab one of Yarn Along's buttons to share on your own blog. She has made them in a rainbow of colors so you can grab the one that suits you best!

I finished up the monster pants from last week: here's a side by side of them and the monkey pants for a cousin's friends baby.

Now I am working on an afghan for my hubby. Its a corner to corner (c2c) crocheted afghan. I am hoping that this one works up faster than the one I made for my son. So far I am not getting to bored with it as I did with the other one I made.

I am starting "Plain Living" by Rachel Bauer. I love reading books on the Amish.

Happy Crafting!

I am working on a pair of monster pants. This is the 4th pair I have made over the last couple of weeks, and this pair is working up rather quickly! The finished monkey ones from last week.

I finished the poncho that I was working on last week. It turned out really cute, and the little girl loved it!! I am now working on a pair of knitted monkey pants. This pair is coming along alot faster than the last pair I made.

I am enjoying "The Friendships of Women" book, and learning more things about myself as I read. In the beginning of the book, she mentions how friends are like flowers in a garden. Some friends are annuals, and others are perennials; this is so very true in some of the friends I have had over the years.

The finished poncho

I am working on a poncho for a special little girl. I am hoping that the colors I picked look good together once its completed. While I am crocheting, I am just starting a new book, "The Friendships of Women" by Dee Brestin.

I am excited to do some blog hopping and see what others are working on and reading.
