Finally getting well

Well everybody in our house has been sick this past month, and none of us at the same time. But we are all still trying to shake it. So needless to say, I haven't been doing much crocheting, just a little here and there. I am stalled on my 63 square again. Maybe now that I am feeling better I can finish putting it together. We just got assigned our swap partners at the 'Ville, so it's time to get busy making stuff to send to my Secret Pal. YAY!

I made this scarf for my mom this morning. I put a Spider Stitch on each end for decoration.
I made this poncho for myself a couple of weekends ago when I wasn't feeling well, but needed to get my crochet on. LOL It's a 2-strander and I used a Q hook, no pattern, I just started to crochet and this is what the result was, it's super cute on :-)

Quick and Quirky Q Hook Poncho Weekend

Well I broke my New Year's Resolution of not starting any new projects until I got the two afghans I have in the works finished. But I just couldn't resist this great pattern "Quick and Quirky Q Hook Poncho" at That Girl Crochet Blog. I made one last night while watching movies, and the other this morning. My daughter is modeling both ponchos :-) the orange one is mine and the purple one is hers.

The orange one was made using Patons Bohemian in Copper Chaos (single strand) and the purple one using Phentex Fashion Thirteen Chenille Purple (double stranded)
