i made these for my 12 year old cousin. she wants to wear pants and a shirt to sleep in. and so i made these for her. they are sooooo soft i absolutly love them. i am really happy with how they turned out. i hope she dont think they are to young though since they are raggedy ann and andy. but oh well its not like anyone will see them besides the family anyway. and if she still dont want them i will gladly wear them!!!!

martha stewart coming home poncho
i finishe this today. had to go buy a whole skin of yarn just so i could do the last like 10 stiches. i used lions brand homespun yarn color 338 nouveau. after i got the first 4 skeins i found out there is a dye lot. so there are like 5 diffrent dye lots in this one poncho. so annoying. but at least i know for next time though right. i am gonna make alexia one too. i let her pick the color for hers and she picked fushia (go figure). but all in all i am very happy with it. diffrent dye lots and all. it looks like its supposed to be like that. and the dark patch on my arm, belive it or not is not a new skein. one shein was just super blye on the middle. heres a link to it. http://cache.lionbrand.com/patterns/chs-scallopEdgePoncho.html?noImages=0

cow potholder
i made this to go in my new kitchen. since i will be moving back to VA due to the divorce i will get to decorate everything however i want to. and one of those ways is tons of cows. there will also be lots of pink and lots of scarface stuff. i love that move so much!!!! but the cow is called handy holsten. and is in the book hooked on crochet from 1994 (cant make out the months sorry) and its a make it tonight pattern. however i couldnt make it in a night cause i ran out of white yarn before i could do the ears (which i hate cause they look like mouse ears) but if i woulda had the white yarn i woulda been able to make it in a night. i started on a poncho so i wont make its friend until i am finished with that
