Knit Picks Comfy Worsted -celestial,hawk
needles 4,5,6
i think the zipper might be to small, but it is done. I took me about five weeks. I  really like the way it looks cute. Toby likes it (i think)
 

I over blocked the gloves the first time. i let it them dry  over cups. i guess they were to big. so i re washed them and re blocked

Knit Picks Palette- dyed yarn

the lace was the most time consuming part of the gloves
 
Wips
 
blanket squares. i got tired or measuring out the spaces after the first two. so i just blanket stitched eyeballing it. so not all the spaces are even. but as long as i crochet the same number of stitches around each it will be ok. so I do 2dc,ch2, 2 dc into the corner, then 10 dc along the side, do that all the way around sl st .ch3  2dc, ch 2, 2dc in the corner, then just dc into the dcs of the last round
 
I'm also working on Simple Fingerless Mittsby Jessica Powers with the rest of yarn from my veyla mitts

Finished

I went to visit my mom and sister. While my sister was a school, my mom and I walked to Micheal's craft store. First we went to the Pier one, and my mom saw some jewelry but they cost a bit much. so while at Micheal's I picked out a kit, because i didn't have any of my stuff with me. I also picked up some extra beads, chains, findings. most of the stuff was on sale and i had a 40% off coupon for the kit.
Mom is trying to redo a scrapbook that i made years ago. so she is starting he scrap booking stash. sadly i gave away most of my stuff so i don't have much of anything to pass on. and the store was also having a sale on some of that stuff so she got a bit. i just wish i was closer so i could help her.
 
WIP's 


 
I have about 96 squares.I picked up the yarn at Micheal's for like 2.99 I wasn't sure how much I'm going to need. I got worsted weight yarn, i hope it works well. If not i will just have to get something online. I'm using size 5 cotton thread. not sure how I'm going to crochet this.

I worked on these while at my moms  I worked on the cuffs two at a time. I like the simple buttons for the multi colored gloves. I will have to get pearl button for the solid blue ones.
