I love the colors you've used! One of the cutest crochet projects I've seen lately: adorable canning jar toppers. I'll try to post on them next week. I wish I could make them for my kitchen. I also saw the cutest crocheted (or maybe it was knitted) cabinet curtain. You've inspired me to write a post about these cuties!

Your delightful dishcloths and pretty ...Hi Carol, <br /><br />Your delightful dishcloths and pretty afghan are made with a lot of TLC, and colourful magic, that crochet is indeed, very much alive! I gave knitting a shot when I was pregnant with my daughter, new to Greece, and had a lot of time on my hands, as I wasn't working. I managed to make two sweaters that were 10 sizes too large for myself, and that was it! Thanks for sharing your sudsy sweets!<br /><br />PoppyPoppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08980323586402386609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6067086599881836650.post-44497413389047126712014-07-09T09:02:07.583-07:002014-07-09T09:02:07.583-07:00I don't crochet or knit, but I love seeing wha...I don't crochet or knit, but I love seeing what projects others create.

I would like to try to learn to crochet, but I think I would be just as limited doing that! So, I'll stick to knitting my own rectangular items for now! ;)Kim https://www.blogger.com/profile/15445291034631735026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6067086599881836650.post-11258369613290791212014-07-08T13:01:57.913-07:002014-07-08T13:01:57.913-07:00my mom makes the most wonderful things.

I am not an expert my no means but learned this very well and it has become my signature throw for my shop.<br />I have used the dishcloths and they are really great. Yours are so wonderful and I love your needle case too. Looks like you are on a roll and what great Christmas gifts these will make.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing the inspiration and stopping by my blog today and your kind comment.<br />HugsCelestina Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10021633519525822335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6067086599881836650.post-59090392527759662092014-07-06T18:16:52.585-07:002014-07-06T18:16:52.585-07:00How do you keep them bright and clean?How do you keep them bright and clean?Mrs. Laura Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17334381585683324912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6067086599881836650.post-27926529604313618222014-07-06T17:54:27.309-07:002014-07-06T17:54:27.309-07:00I am so jealous of your creativity!

The sky is the limit with the scarves if you can do it, and they are so popular. Great job sweet blog friend.

I think your work is beautiful and I'm glad you shared it. I didn't realize you liked to crochet. I'm not especially good at it but I find it relaxing. You've made some nice things and you should be proud! Thank you for tagging me in your recent post, by the way, it was really fun to read. Hope you've had a good holiday weekend. :)Jennifer Hayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685253944514672324noreply@blogger.com
