I should be getting 'poncho panache' in the mail tommorow <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> so I'm sure I'll be adding something form that to the list.

sounds great, don't you love how easy they are to make. merwyn

Ponchos yes I love just making 2 strips and sewing the ends together and viola a masterpiece :love: !!I'm probably gonna make my neighbors 3 girls some just because they're so fun to make plus people love them.

I am still working on my nephew's afghan, a poncho for my neice, and scarves for my SIL and coworkers for xmas (7 scarves total)

wow, you guys have been busy. i finished my nieces poncho and now am working on making ornaments. a made one last night with size 10 thread and made it like a snowflake, then put it over a satin ball and used pin s and pearls and beads and sequins to put it together, turned out pretty good, hubby is like oh i can take those and give them for gifts at work, like i don't have enough to make for the fanily!!!ROTFL oh well, they are quick and easy, and really pretty. talk with you soon. merwyn

hi i am making a cool new ornament. i make a crocheted sleeve and make it like a mesh pattern and then i put it over a shiny glass ball and then decorate them with strings of pearls and other beads and also then put little craft roses around the top. they are sooooooooooo pretty now my hubby wants me to make those for him to give to his crew. sheeesh sometimes i think he forgets i already have stuff for them. oh well they don't take long and maybe i will get some orders from them. made my own pattern up too, so that is always nice. i love christmas don't you? merwyn

I just finished the popcorn stitch scarf in Quick & Easy Knitting & Crocheting (#16, pg. 38).

I love it! I'm looking at my remnant bag right now so I can contemplate what to use for the next one.

A double crochet quilt for the kids. After that another for the husband. After that one for the cat. I'm good to go for the next 8 weeks or so.
