Spiral Hat for Big Daddy


The extremely cold Texas weather inspired me to whip up a spiral hat for Big Daddy. The pattern is based on Moriarty: two colour stripey crochet beanie on the "little house by the sea" blog

Eden's Too Sick to Go to School Hat

My precious Eden woke up this morning with a nasty tummy bug. So I concentrated on making her feel better... yes... a new hat did the trick!

The hat is based on the Little House by the Sea pattern  Moriarty: two colour stripey crochet beanie.

Eden's Granny Squarish Hat

The cold weather has played nasty with my arthritis and I'm limping around for the past few days. I swear someone is following me around making old lady noises. I sure don't sound like that!

I took a break from the USM and dabbled in some crochet this morning and was able to surprise Eden with this hat when she got home from school.


The hat is based on Susie's Kid's Granny Hat (C) pattern and I added a crochet rose.

Tank Top for Eden

This has been a very dark, very could have been dreary weekend. I know technically, the weekend was over yesterday. Big Daddy was off from work and the kids off from school so I'm call'n it the weekend. Eden was looking at my yarn and picked out a variegated skein that I had purchased to make another tam. She needs another hat like... well... This is what we came up with for my 11-11 project for today.


The yoke an body are knitted separately and then kitchener stitched together. 
GRRRRRRRRRR!!!! It is simply too dark to get a good picture of the tank.

The second row has a few eyelets to give a soft scallop to the bottom.  Then I single crocheted a row along the edge followed by a row of crab-stitch.

The photo is too dark to see the detail... I just had to use it for the Cutie Pie in the pic.

The neckline has a row of single crochet and a row of crab-stitching. The sleeves have a single row of crab-stitching.

The back of the neckline is lower than the front.

OCD....Obsessive Crochet Disorder

Over the years I have posted various projects on the Internet and over the years I have lost track of where I posted them. I have resolved (o crap another resolution!) to get all of my ducks in a row and find one spot or one program to store them. Sooooo--- I have come back to Blogger.com and have moved OCD - Obsessive Crochet Disorder and My Dearest DD into one combined site.
