been out for awhile...

Pardon me, for being unattentive and ignoring you, I've been very busy and waiting to have some "blog-worthy" to write.

At the moment, I just finished my DH's neck warmer, others called it neck tube-scarf. I followed the instructions from bellaonline on how to make a neck warmer, she gave a formula so you can customize the neck warmer you want to make.

I mentioned this project in my previous blog, - didn't make any gauge, so I redo the whole thing.

The materials I used are:

Yarn: Therma Nouva Yarn from Lang

Hook size: Susan Bates 6.5mm and 5mm

Then when I reach almost the top around 9 rounds more, I change the hook to a smaller one, so to fit and will not fall down to his neck when he wants to cover his nose.

Another project I just finished last night was a poncho. I made this for my eldest DD. I used luv2crochet pattern - lacy shell poncho and used the following materials:

Yarn: Steinbach Wolle 100% acrylic

Hook size: 6.5mm and 5mm ( for the the flower)



The poncho took me about 3 days to finish, although I know I can finish it in one sitting, it's just that I don't have help here at home, and I do all the chores, plus teaching my two daughters in their lessons...so you can just imagine how busy I am at home.
