Tatting...

I thought I had never seen any tatted work before.

I have heard of it.
My mom has a blanket that her grandmother started making but she was never able to finish it.

My husband looked up tatting one day for and he found the most awesome website.
Handy Hands is so awesome!!

They have a how-to on their website and it has detailed pictures.

With little, okay some, cussing, I figured it out.

Now I love it.

I have lots more practice to do but it is awesome.

And my husband, not to be out done, made me this giant tatting needle.It works great for yarn!

Now I just have to figure out how to shuttle tat!!

Baby boys

I love them so much!! I even have 2! Well, they are not really babies anymore. One is 2 and the other is 4 now.
Geeze, they grow up too quickly.

This little ensemble was not theirs. But I made it for my store on Etsy.
It is for newborns. Comes with the cardigan, hat, booties and the no-scratch mittens.

How many Granny Squares?

A little over 3000!!!!!!

That is how many granny square it will have to make for a blanket to cover our bed.

They are little bity 2 inch ones.

I think they are cute and work up SUPER fast.

82 down. 3000 to go :)

2 inch squares.
Great way to use up my scraps!
