"New Shoes" in Annie's Attic

If you are looking at this on 19th of July, you can still get this free pattern at Annie's Attic.
Don't miss it!!! Get it now!

This is my 1st try. The toe portion of the right side is not very neat. Since the pattern is so easy, I will try to make another better one.



This is the side view



Today there are 2 free booties' pattern. I only finished one side for the "Newborn" booties.

Sorry I have been MIA

This summer has been a whirl wind for me and I am so sorry I have not been active here. I got to thinking about my crocheting and I realized I actually started crocheting a year ago this week! I can't believe all the things I have made and the progress I have made in one year. So my question is how long have you been crocheting and in that time what projects have been your favorite or stand out the most in your mind? Was it something you have made for a special someone? Was there a special baby item you are still hanging onto or is it that unfinished object that is still sitting in your closet that haunts you that you remember most?

June hooking progress

Still no socks!! But soon, I hope there will be some socks. In the meantime, here's what I did in June.

I thought I was making a simple sundress for my dd. But it wasn't so simple! The Caprice Sundress as designed just didn't work for me. It became quite a project as I ended up frogging, redesigning and re-crocheting the entire body of the dress. (all those links will take you to the full story - with pictures - at my blog!) I think I will end up lining it as soon as I can get to a fabric store.

I'm still working on the Drops Top we're doing at my Yahoo CAL group. I'm moderating this CAL which started on May 1st. Too many baby items in May and my dd's dress in June stalled progress on this. Nonetheless, I have finished the front panel. Working on the back panel now! I will finish this soon!!
