It's in the bag - Purse/Tote Swap at C'ville

I received my tote bag from my partner Stephanie at the "Ville.

I just love this bag, so pretty.

She also included some extras goodies.

Here is a pic of the bag I made for her. Unfortunately, the color looks all washed out in this picture. It is reallya nice Midnight Blue.

I recieved my invite to Ravelry a couple of days ago. My ID there is Sabrina. And I have to say that I am spending far too much time on Ravelry looking around, adding things to my account, etc. . .

I haven't posted in a while, mainly there hasn't been anything really worthy of writing about. I did complete a shawl for a swap I was in . I used TLC Essentials yarn in Fall Leaves (autumny colors - variegated). And of course I packed it up and sent it out without taking a picture of it. Oh well!

I noticed while working with the TLC Essentials yarn that it split very easily. It was very irritating. This is the first time I have used TLC Essentials yarn and I am wondering if all of their yarn splits that easily. I still have enough skeins of this yarn to make another shawl and I do love the colors. I am thinking of making a autumn shawl for myself, but I am not looking forward to battling the splitting yarn.

I have a couple of items that I need to complete for a Christmas Swap that I am participating in and then I will be on to the Holiday gifts I plan on making. As usual I am running behind, but should be able to start in a day or two.

Ok, I'm off now to go do something productive now.

September Already?!

I can't believe that it is September alaready! This is one of those years that has both seemed millions of years long and yet has flown by. Truthfully, I am more than ready to see 2007 ride off into the sunset never to be seen or heard from again.

I finally finished the Goddess Shawl I hope the sizing is right on it. I am still worried it might be abit on the small size, but tons better than it was and I don't have any more time to re-do. The birthday celebration is tomorrow. I will post a pic of the shawl later today or tomorrow. I still need to weave in a couple of loose ends and take a picture of it.

Other than that I haven't been doing much else. Well, I also finished a 12" square for an exchange on my group Crochet Swap Buddies.

I still have a couple of things to work on for an exchange on an other group.
