This Summer

I finished school this week. I am going to try to crochet, knit, and sew more. I hope that I will also be able to post more often.

Some of the projects I want to do are to crochet hats and doilies. I want to knit a blanket, scarf, and dish clothes. I also want to sew with my grandma.

What are you planning to crochet, knit, or sew this summer? Please, post a comment and, if you like my site, follow my site.

A Double Rainbow

A few weeks ago it rained. Late in the evening my sister notice a rainbow. I went to take some pictures, and then I noticed it was a double rainbow! I had not seen a double rainbow up to this point, and I doubt I will see one again.

In the Bible Noah and his family were the only ones to survive a world wide flood. The rainbow was a sign to Noah that there would not be a flood that covered the whole world again. If you see a rainbow, please remember that.
Here are some pictures I took of the rainbows:



I know the pictures are not as beautiful as seeing the rainbows in reality, but I still hope you can enjoy looking at the pictures of them. I hope you can see the second rainbow above the more obvious one. You can see the second one better in the first picture.

Grandma's Dish Clothes

Several months ago, my grandma came to visit my family. I made her some dish clothes. She loves the way they wring out. It was an easy present to prepare, plus I was running out of projects to do.

For all but one of these I used the pattern I posted here. The tan and white dish cloth is the one from a different dish cloth pattern.

Here are some pictures:




Here are all the dish clothes (except for one blue one I did not take a picture of).



This is the one that is different from the others.


Here are all of the similar ones (but the blue one).

Here is one alone.


This is a dishcloth my sister knitted. It is only her second dish cloth!

My First Hat

I finished my first crocheted hat this week. My family got me a hat book for my birthday. I have never made a hat before, and I really enjoyed making it.

I finished the hat Wednesday. I am going to make another hat for my brother and sister. They wanted a hat, too. I have started on my brother's, but my sister has not decided what kind of hat she wants. I will post pictures of their hats when I finish them.

Here are some pictures of me with my hat on.
