This is a really cool afghan sent in by Sue Kreitzer - a super idea to make squares with left over yarn skeins. Use all different colors, types of yarn and stitch designs and create a very personal afghan. She used stockinette, zizag, criss cross, ribbing and open braid to create so many looks.

The finished size is 72″X 56″   - makes a great bedcover.

Thank you Sue for the idea!

Anna McConkey sent in this photo of her little tote knit with  Lion Brand Homespun yarn,  all one  color.  She used the   Fleur  Tote Pattern    but without  the  fleur de lis design.   With a different yarn and adjusting the pattern a little you can achieve a very different look.

Great job Anna!

Cheryl Wurtenburger knit this little doll  for her daughter.   I think it’s really a great idea.  You can make  many different dolls and stuffed animals with just some imagination and little time.  Also, its such a great way to use up left over yarns.

 When I asked about shade plants, I really received some great ideas from many folks.   Here are some photos sent to us from Dora R Wilkerson.   Thanks to all for the imput.   I am going to have so much fun once the rain ever returns to our Virginia area.
