I have recently discovered maybe I have become a "homesteader" and have thus updated my blog to reflect this newfound revelation.

Granny had a craft table and...
Well I may not be a granny (yet), but this cover for my bar stool at the craft table sure is..
If you like granny patterns, you might like this! So I found this cushion at JoAnn's and it just so happened to be only sale for half price (don't know why, there was nothing wrong with it) so I bought it. I also needed a chair that would be easily hidden under my craft table so it wouldn't be in the walkway. I grabbed a simple bar stool, took this cushion, made a granny circle and this is what I came up with. You might notice a tie hanging down, I strung an I-cord through the last rnd to secure it to my bar stool, that way it is easily washable or removable!

Well in light of my recent post of crochenit (that's the name I prefer) I designed a simple little dishcloth pattern. I've been on a kitchen project kick lately. I plan on making table placement sets (place mats, coasters, ect) and a few dishcloths, also towel toppers. The towel topper is made from The lion brand website.

Grande bag
This bag was made from a free pattern on the lion brand website. It is made with 4 balls of super bulky (6wpi) and 2 wooden 12"x15" dowels on size 11 knitting needles. This bag is a great size for a knitting bag or overnight bag, or simply an oversized purse! But be aware, if you do not line this bag it will stretch, A LOT. I also highly recommend lining the handles as well.
I didn't follow this pattern exactly. I crocheted the sides with a K hk because the pattern recommendation didn't work for me. I also crocheted the handles and the button loop.
