Creatively Crafty

Lately I have been on a crocheting kick, and it just so happens that a lot of babies have been coming into this world recently.

Meet Henry...

My friend Leah gave birth to this handsome man on January 11th. I wanted to contribute something special for him so I decided it would be nice to make him an Afgan. My mom is such an artist with her creations and over the years she has taught me some tricks of the trade when it comes to yarn and a hook. After several attempts of trial and error I finally figured out a pattern that I liked. I finished it on the plane ride to Florida, and gave it to Leah the next day. I was really pleased with the turn out and even happier when she sent me this picture:)

Sweet little Reagan..

While I was in Florida I started to crochet Reagan's Afgan. To make hers a little more feminine I added a ruffled border. I was really pleased with the end result and it looks like Reagan is too.
