I know...boy has it been a while! I have been crocheting, but finding it difficult to post. Here is a quick to make baby shower gift. It is made with two strands of yarn. I used Lion Brand Pound of Love in Ivory and Blue. This works up in about 4 hours and the pattern is so simple!!

You can find the pattern here:

More to come this week!

Hexagon Jacket - Gotta Love It!

This is a variation of Bev's Hexagon Baby Jacket and was created by Elisa Purnell.

This is a free crochet pattern and you can find it on Ravelry: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/hexagon-baby-jacket-with-ruffles

Bev's original jacket is also a free crochet pattern on Ravelry: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/bevs-hexagon-baby-jacket

I crochet loosely so mine actually fits little Gracie who will be turning 3 soon. Although, I probably could have made the sleeves a little longer. If you crochet with normal tension the jacket should fit a 12 month old. This worked up in about 4 hours, however, I only worked on it a little at night so it took about a week for me to complete.
I used Red Heart Super Saver yarn and it only took one skein of each color. It was a great project and Gracie loves it! Now, we just need the weather to cool off a bit!

Ravelry is just so awesome!
