Rugs in 2011

Here's what I got hooked this year.

New York Beauty

My childhood home

This rug is nearly finished.
 

Frogs and Fiddleheads

It doesn't seem like very much when viewed this way. But I need to remember that in between loops were knitting and crocheting projects and binding of rugs. How did you do this year?

Knitting frenzy

Got the best scarf pattern at our local yarn shop to knit a scarf for my daughter for Christmas. Loved it so much, made another for a grab bag. Next, came a gift for the neighbor, and now it's on to one for my sister. Here is a photo of it in progress.

I love this pattern as it alternates needle size and is never boring. Worked in a worsted weight with size 7 and 9 needles. When you finish you have a scarf with a hole at one end to tuck the scarf into. Cute and ruffly!

Pinterest

I like Pinterest!. If you never been there, give it a go. Search for anything, and you'll find some kind of photo on your topic often with the link to the original place it appeared on the Web.

I've been looking up Christmas decorating, but a while back I did a search on rug hooking. Here is a small sampling of what I found:

 

 

 

Sorry these photos are not arranged well. This is the best  I can do with the Blogger tools.
