Wednesday greetings!

Hello friends!! Happy Wednesday... these days seem

to be flying by so quickly! We had a little snowfall last

night, here in Alberta, but the sunshine today is melting

all that fell in the evening. It looks so pretty, like

diamonds, brilliant and sparkly! :) 

Below are links to my books and crafts... you're welcome to

share these links with your friends and family. I appreciate

all of you for your support in my arts. 

Have a beautiful Wednesday with much love, Debra

All set up

I've been very busy this past year...below is just a small portion

of the items I have made. Some I haven't listed on my Etsy shop

yet and others I haven't finished... 

I have a home showing tonight... I hope to sell something! 

Above are some unfinished things..dish cloths,

scarves and more... I love the dish cloths,

they are the green and the blue on the right of

the green...I crocheted these Tunisian style.

Actually the 2 scarves on each other side of

them is also Tunisian crochet! I am addicted! 

A Commercial!! :)

Here is a little sampling of what I do... 

but there is much more to come!

I put this together over a month ago, but just 

decided to make it public. 

Okay, okay, a little plug for my shop! LOL   

I have much more in my store on Etsy for you 

to see now and I will continue to add 

new items throughout the year. 

Have a wonderful week ahead...stay warm and safe

out there... we had much snow today! brrrrr

Time for coffee!! :)

This commercial is commercial free... ;) 

lol :)

On Sale Now - Halter

I have just listed a halter top on Etsy that I finished yesterday.

The body and cording are knit and edges are crocheted with

a coordinating color. Done in earthy tones with acrylic and an

acrylic/wool blend yarn. It can be adjusted to fit body with the 

cording, or tied behind for a different look. Very versatile in \

style. Can be worn year round. I have put this on sale for 

weekend... it is now $5 off the original list price. 

Have a great weekend! 

New Knit Scarf with Crochet Rose

I've been doing quite a bit of hand knitting

lately. Working on some cowls for my Etsy

shop. This black scarf can be worn like a

cowl with the detachable crocheted red rose.

It can be pinned in front, at the shoulder... or

worn without, whatever suits your mood. 

This particular scarf I knit on my bulky machine

in a tuck stitch, so it's reversible (opposite side

is stockinette stitch). I'll be working on more

of these with a variety of flowers, colors, 

styles, lengths and stitches... you can also

add your own brooches for a completely 

different look...I'll be making those too...lol

Have a happy weekend!! :)

New Knit Hats for Winter

Today I knit 2 different toques to choose 

from. The top brown hat is a bit lighter 

weight than the bottom gold hat... gold is

much heavier and thicker in bulk. Both

styles can be worn slouchy or hem up

for extra warmth. Great for winter. 

Choice of color available by request

on my Etsy site.

These were manually knit on my Elna 2300 bulky

knitting machine and finished off by hand. I

think I will do some different patterns and stripes

for more variety! Hope your week is going great!

We are having a snowy day today... at least 3 inches

already!! BRRRRRRRRRRR... I better knit myself an

extra thick hat to keep my head and ears warm!  lol 

Enjoy the rest of the week..weekend is almost here!!

Fine Gauge Knit Scarf

Here is a blue knit scarf with a hint of gray tone. This is very 

light-weight fabric, nice if you don't want too much bulk 

around the neck. Suitable for a man or woman. 

This scarf, I knit on a Toyota 901 4.5 mm (or standard gauge) 

punch card manual machine. I will be knitting more items with

this machine in the coming months. I love the look of

the finer stitches. :) 

Above shows both sides... 2 looks in one. :) 

Thank you for stopping by! Have a 

happy weekend! 

Scarves

Here are 2 finished scarves. One custom order, 

blue and red Fair Isle pattern knit by machine. 

Below shows both sides of the scarf.

The Teal scarf was knit in a basketweave

pattern by hand with soft brushed acrylic yarn. 

Nice and warm. :) 

Winter is coming. 

Scarf and Baby Afghan - almost done!

Here are a couple of projects that I've been

working on this past week... a scarf and baby afghan.

I still need to do some finishing work on these.  

Have a great day and evening! 

October Knits

The past few days I haven't been on the pc much. I've

been knitting and trying out some new stitches. Below are 

some of the things I've been working on. Winter is coming!

The snow has melted but the chill is in the air! 

Some of these are finished... some not so finished\!! lol

Wool blend scarf... soft and warm.

A cotton cloth... of some sort. ;)

 A toque trio... my son got to choose which one

he wanted ... can you guess? Okay... he liked all

three. He refuses to wear store bought so I made

him these... :)

  A wool blend scarf... cool stitch and tweed yarn.

A soft fuchsia color scarf - to - be. ;)

and another cotton thingie. ;)

Teal ... :) And I don't know what it will be yet. lol

Above will be another toque when 

I'm done sewing it all up!

Above is a cotton dish towel or place mat... I haven't

decided yet! Maybe a bathroom face towel! :)

I decided to punch out a blank punch card with a new design

and I made a few holes in places where there shouldn't

have been...I'm out of practice! But...a little tape to 

cover the mistakes and it worked out... it's just a sample

to see the stitch... I'll be unraveling it and I'll try a 

sport weight yarn instead of the worsted weight. 

So there you go... what I've been doing...OFF the pc!! lol

Enjoy your Sunday!!! Much love, 

from me... :)

Yellow Baby Afghan - Knit with Crochet Border

My project of the day... a tuck stitch machine knit baby

blanket with crochet edge. I haven't blocked it yet. I just 

finished with it and am watching a movie... a scary one!! 

This photo shows both sides...the knit side and the tuck side

with the crochet border... done in soft yellow acrylic yarn.

Have a beautiful Friday! :)
