knitpro 2.0

So there’s a pretty neat (and free) online program that lets you upload any photo and turn it into a crochet (or knitting) pattern for an afghan/blanket!  It’s called KnitPro 2.0, and it can be used for sc projects (one block = one sc) or even dc filet crochet projects if you upload a two-tone photo (one block = 3 sts)!  Pretty cool for a free thing.  The link to it is in my sidebar as well so you can always find it on this site!

my first blanket ever

This is the first blanket/afghan I ever made, and it was for a school project.  I used cheap, chunky, and somewhat ugly yarn and dc stitches.  It comfortably covers a twin bed when unfolded, and it’s very warm!

baby blanket

This is my first baby blanket!  It’s made using double crochet stitches and carrying the unused color underneath the used one and switching them out, so I didn’t have to sew together a bunch of little squares.  Then I just added a border of hdc to finish it off!  Now to find a baby to give it to…
