Kiddie Crochet

Well....we are holding down the fort here. The winds are pretty brisk and we've had several rain events today but I think that's all we'll get out of Irene. I took a video this morning on my phone and tried to upload it to youtube to post for you but that didn't work out real well. :o( It was a good one too. Showed how fast the clouds were whizzing by and I did a darn good job narating too. Oh well.

So on my hooks the last few nights, 7.5 hours to be exact, is below. I actually enjoyed it immensely, seeing them come together. Now the hard part of the doll is ahead of me. I did the easy stuff first. :o) I can't wait until she's done.
The two on top are the shirt and skirt, then the sweater and purse. The only thing I am missing is the button on the back of the skirt but that's small potatoes. And I embellished the sweater. I added the stripe and the pink trim in light raspberry. (Lighting as usual have diminished the true colors) I love the magenta and raspberry together. Wasn't sure what color to do the purse, went digging in my stash and came up with this variegated red/pink color. Pretty cool huh?

So that's it for me today folks. I'm hoping and praying that Irene doesn't hurt anyone and that she doesn't do too much damage. I imagine NYC is in panic mode currently. I feel for them...we in the south know what it's like to deal with hurricanes, unlike them. I think they said last night on the news about every 75 years or so??? First an earthquake, then a hurricane. Hate it for them.

Have as good a weekend as you can. Cya soon!

  1. You're a little bit closer to the coast than me but, that's what I'm expecting here. Just like Isabel. Everything is tied down and the storm window is up on the coop.
    I hope we don't lose power for too long.
    We'll see.

  3. Let us know how you fared through the hurricane. Cute crocheted doll clothes. I think it's harder doing tiny stuff like that than the bigger type stuff, don't you?
