My 2 w.i.p's

This can be found here
I am making this for my husband for Christmas.
I am using RHSS in black & claret & a J hook.
For sizing reference pic was taken on
a queen size bed it is just barely shy of going
all the way across


This is something I've been working on.
It's my own design.. It is prettier in person..
its all single crochet & chains to create the little nubs you see

Here is another thing I made to add to my
Halloween collection.. The body is just a circle &
the wings are the wings for the bat in the previous
post I just worked them opposite each other so
the stitches would all be facing the same way & not
look like they were put on backwards

I'm bad.. LOL... Here is an update...

Some of my latest things..I found these on line...






This cupcake purse can be found on CrochetvilleI got to test the frog & wrist warmers



These are some of the latest things
I have done that are of my own design..

shrunken heads hanging from mantle








I have a few w.i.p's that are coming along I need to get
pics of...

Chic On The Half Shell by Drew Emborsky

I messed it up a little... Started it late, got one side done
laid everything together & went to bed..
My hook grew legs in the night!
Finished other side with different brand aluminum hook,
1st side was done with a plastic hook...
So one side a little bigger then the other....
