Chemo caps.

My dad died in december.  I have been working on Chemo caps since then.  He died before he could even start his chemo treatment.  I miss him everyday ... and I am doing this in his honor.

Should I??

I am thinking about starting up an ETSY shop.  I think if I get some stuff made up and in stock i will be up to putting things on there. I have no idea.  I would have to charge a bit more than I charge my friends and family around here.  Just because they charge for the listings and they charge a certain percentage of the sell price.  So that has to be taken care of.  So we will see.

2012 Ambitions.

I am trying to write out my first ever crochet pattern it will be for a "Professor Layton" blanket.  I have just discovered a great tool that can turn any picture into a pattern. http://www.microrevolt.org/knitPro/  I am so excited.  I have lots of ideas now.  :)  I want to work on so much stuff!!!
I am going to post some pics this time to show what I am going to do with this Layton blanket.  It will be motivation to get my other "in progresses" done so I can start on this one.
 This is the regular picture... you might recognize it if you are a nerd like me.  It is from a series of Nintendo DS games.  They are by far some of my FAVES.
this is what the tool does.  It even numbers the lines!  It may be hard to see here... but check out the website.  I added the link at the beginning.   

We will see what happens!!!

Things in progress

I am working on a few things right now. I wanted to post about them today. First, I am working on some blankets for my best friend's sons. Their dad is in the marines and they will be moving at the end of the school year. I will miss them more than anything. So i am making them star blankets in camouflage, green, brown and khaki colors. Then I have a baby shower coming up. I am working.on my first ripple blanket for that little guy.
I am so excited that we had a sale on red heart yarns the other day at work. With my discount i paid $1.50 a skein for.it. o_O excitement! anyway. I am going to add pictures of my in progress works.
