Seaside Shawl or Is Winter ever going to end?

Spring came our way for a couple of days.  I didn't know if I was going to get much

wear out of my Seaside Shawl. But, winter has come back for a short stay, so yay! 

 The shawl is getting worn on cold mornings. 

 

 

Pattern from Solstrikke.  (She has such a lovely blog with great tutorials.)

 

 

 I love it.  I love the colors, the drape, the size,

 the way it wraps around me...like a big yarny hug! 

 

 

Red Heart Boutique in Tidal again...same as my infinity scarf.

 

 

I am currently working on a Maybelle Flower garland in all my favorite Spring colors! 

 

 

Wild about Yarn has a "Motif Monday"  Every Monday she posts a new pattern

that she has created.  These are two of the doily patterns from her site.

There is a flower pattern and another doily that I haven't tried yet but will soon.. 

I love these quick, easy projects.  (Almost) Instant gratification.

 

And yarn wreaths....I know they were popular like 5 years ago.  But I still love them. 

They are so much fun to create...even though I always burn myself with the hot glue gun. 

I change mine out on my front door every month or so with the seasons.

I had a neighbor stop by and ask me to make her one.  She said it looks like a great, big hello. 

Yes!  That is exactly what I wanted. 

 

And finally...maybe one of favorite mandala's from Wink...Issue 14 of Simply Crochet. 

(I am having a hard time blocking it correctly.  It should be a circle,

 but for some reason mine is  turning out lopsided!)

 

 

I love the open-ness.  Her patterns and pictures are always so easy to follow. 

 

 

Linking up with these two very talented ladies Chrissie and Nicole this week.
