Bunch of Crocheted Tawashis

Here's all my tawashis that I've been making with scrap yarns. Some are cotton and some acrylic. The larger ones are a different pattern that the smaller ones and I think I like it better.

Below is one of the larger ones closed up at the bottom and I crocheted a chain to close the top. I thought it could enclose a bar of soap and used in the shower to scrub your body.

Tawashi or Not Tawashi

I found a pattern for crocheting a tawashi that I like. So cute, huh? They crochet up really fast, too. I used cotton, Lily's Sugar and Cream, for the light colored ones and Red Heart KIDS acrylic yarn for the bright one in front.

So fun and they really work well. The cotton ones are soft enough to use on your skin and the acrylic ones are great for dishes. You can use the cotton ones for dishes, too.

Ok, it's time for me tawashi the dishes! LOL

You can see, I'm still having trouble with the focus on my camera.

Lily Sugar and Spice Pot Holders

I know this isn't my hat nor a floppy hat at all but I decided to switch to pot holders. They're kind of cute.

Here's my first ones. I really need to get to the store for more yarn. I don't have a stash like a lot of people and am getting dangerously low on yarn.

New Red Heart Yarn Project ~ Floppy Hat ~ Crochet

In Progress........

Check it out!



Have you ever taken a picture of yourself wearing a hat and not wanting to get your face in the photo? Not an easy task but I think you get the idea of what the hat looks like so far.

Tonight I could get it finished. I need to use a little bit larger hook, I think, it's more of a child size hat.

Bag

I got lots of the strap done last night but got called away today to help at the foodbank so I didn't get the strap done. Have aways to go but could get it done tonight.

And the Bag Goes ON.........

Ok, I thought I'd be done tonight but it didn't happen.......yet. I had to take time to play a game of horseshoes with my son. I even won!!

You can see the handle stitches going up the side of the bag.

I'm pretty sure it'll be done tomorrow but I do have a full day at the foodbank so we'll see. I'm trying......

Mesh Market Bag Cotton Thread Knitted

Here's my next project. Remember that blue mesh market bag? This is the same pattern only I'm using varigated cotton. What you see is the bottom of the bag and I've begun working up the sides. This is being knit on size 13 circular needle.

The yarn is on a cone but I think it's like Sugar and Cream or something like that. Whatever you can get at WalMart.

I'll post another photo later so you can see my progress. This bag is similar but not the same pattern. Click here
