Two-Face Triangle Shawl - Free Pattern Friday

It was a short week, but still so busy!  I've been trying to catch up on work and home.  My garden has been planted and everything is growing beautifully!  I've noticed a few leaves are being eaten though.  I was talking to my neighbor who is a wonderful gardener and she has noticed slugs in her garden and thinks it's the same in mine.  EW!!!  That needs to be remedied.

Anyway....I do have time for another free pattern!!!

Today's free pattern for Free Pattern Friday is Two-Face.  I saw this picture and immediately knew I had to share this.  I love this!  It's such a simple idea, but the look is so bold!

I love the small touch of the lacy holes down the center.  I love the colors that they chose, but this would also be cool in a black and white or light gray and dark gray.  They combinations are endless!

Finished Baby Blankets and a New Scarf!

Happy Tuesday morning!  The rain is gone, the sun is shining and I have some new finished items!

There are two new blankets listed in my shop!  I had posted about these last week.  I finished the purple blanket last Thursday and listed both this morning!

So they're both done...

And I finished this scarf!  This was fun to make and really easy!

I just need to cut the end of the yarn and sew it in, and it will be ready to wear!  The yarn is soft and it has sequins through it to add a little sparkle!  I really like how this one came out.  I love the big ruffle!  Here's a close-up.

I just have to figure out what to wear it with....

I'm still working on the super secret project!  It should be done soon, but I still can't post what it is until after the first weekend in May!

A few new knit baby blankets!

So...what have I been creating lately?  I've been on a blanket kick lately.  I had to make so many scarves this winter that I'm tired of them!  Now don't get me wrong, I love making scarves for orders that have come in, but it's always the same pattern.  So I've had a little time lately to create something different.

First, I finished this blanket.  I absolutely love this yarn.  It's so fuzzy and soft.  When it's knit up, it feels just like a soft fleece blanket.  I was going to list this on my website, but I think that this one is going to be saved for an upcoming baby shower.  I'll just have to make another one to put up for sale.  I don't think that I could ever get tired of using this yarn, though.  It's just so comfy!

Here's a close up.  Even this doesn't show how soft and cozy this blanket is.

The one that I'm knitting now is almost finished.  Just a few more rows to go.

I love how this is turning out.  The stripes add a nice change to the basic pattern and I love how the variegated yarn looks in the ripples.  It's turning out to be a nice size, too.  It would be a great blanket that a little one could use even thru the toddler years!  Here is a close up.

I might have to make more stiped blankets with this pattern.  Maybe blue and brown or pink and brown or shades of gray.  Any ideas?

Happy Tuesday!
