About Me

I have loved knitting ever since I was a little girl.I use to make dolls cloths for my dolls just out of the top of my head...I love making socks,slippers, mittens, dishcloths etc...I love drawing & cartoons & making patterns out of them...

My Grand Mother Burhoe & My Great Aunt Marjorie McCoubrey taught me how to knit when I was a little girl...When I use to go to my Aunt Marjorie's house I would stay over night she live in the high rise across from market square & we would knit & look out her window & watch the boats...Some times we would go out on the board walk...Then we had our walks to Market Square, we would go in all the little shops & look at all the ornaments & novelties...Some times we would buy something & get a piece of fudge at the fudge stand in the center of market square... When I would go to my Gram's house I would also knit when i was there...Gram was always knitting socks, mittens & she made me a blanket witch I still have...lol It has come apart several times & she would always fix it for me...I still use it to snuggle & the kids are not allowed to use my blanket because it is so warm & cozy...lol I actually made my daughter her own blanket & I will have to make 3 more for all them to have one...My mother inlaw taught me how to follow knitting patterns. God rest her soul. She is truly missed.

I love the 80's...Especially the 80's Cartoons, tv shows, Movies etc...When ever I come upon something from the 80's I gotta have it...lol I have uploaded pictures of things I have collected over the years so far...I hope to collect more...None of my items are for sale...I am just posting them for your viewing pleasure...Enjoy

Olaf Christmas Stocking

Just finished making this for my Granddaughter for next Christmas :)

The stocking pattern is out of crochet world Dec 2013. The instructions on doing the heal were not easy to understand so I just winged it & it turned out. I changed the Top part of the stocking bc I wanted to be able to put my granddaughters name in it. The last two rows of the top of the sock are from the pattern.

The body of the sock is what I would call a seed stitch if I were knitting. What ever stocking pattern you use as long as it is a odd number. Like for example this one had 49 sc in the round, So if your pattern was 35 or 39 it would work with that pattern. For the seed stitch in crochet all you do is alternate front loop, back loop around. The video tutorial for the olaf applique is here

The top of the sock I did reverse sc. I found it gave it a finished look. You can see it here

For the name I did surface chain stitch with a needle instead of a hook. Here is both versions: Embroidery surface chain
