I’ve been avoiding the whole crocheted jewelry for a while, but Bailey wanted to knit while Brook and Jesse were at the store buying his Cap’n Jack Sparrow stuff. I just finished the crocheted hat and hadn’t found a new project I just HAD to do yet. So, I looked through my SnB Happy Hooker book and the crocheted jewelry caught my eye….
I still have to put the findings on, but the dryer is buzzing and I have to go fold clothing!
here’s the hat! Finally took a photos. It’s just a tad small for Jesse, so I’ll have to make another one with a bigger hook to make sure it’ll fit.

I just finished my first successful hat! Jesse is sleeping, but I hope he likes it. I used the pattern from the SnB Happy Hooker – Crochet book – for the “boy beanie”. It’s grey with green stripes. I’m going to try it on him once he wakes up and will take photos then!
Then, I try it on Bailey and if she likes it, make her a girly version!
This is about the 15th time I’ve tried to make a hat. The other pattern I hat, just didn’t work for me for some reason. I think this one worked because it was DC instead of SC. I love doing DC!
I hate to put up in progress photos like some folks do, because a lot of times I have to frog it so many times it’s not even worth sharing.
I made this for Bailey’s birthday in April. I crocheted it, but I’m really happy with it!

Princess Leia “barbie” is modeling a crocheted hat, crocheted skirt, crocheted capelet and a crocheted purse. She is also wearing a knitted shawl (that’s like Bailey’s).
I’ve finished multiple items today! Now I just need to find a new project!

OK, it ended up being for Bailey because I was SOOOOOO tired of knitting it and when I finished it, it was too little for me.
Oh well, she looks really cute in it! I’ll make myself another one!

I’ve started working on a shawl for the freezing days at work! It feels like I’ve been knitting this forever and ever! I’m close to the end of the ball of yarn and then I discovered another ball! I’ll have to decide if I want to keep going once I finish.
I’m also working on making bailey belt out of this really cool bamboo yarn I picked up off the clearance rack at joann’s!
