Necessity is the mother of invention, and no one has more necessity than a mother. My son was teething on the edge of the crib, and I didn’t want him to be eating the finish, so I made what I can only think to call a crib shrug to protect him from the finish. It is knitted from Bernat Handicrafter Cotton Lime Stripes. The edging and ties are crochetted.

This is my son’s Easter carrot. The body of the carrot is knitted and the green top is crochet. It is all from cotton yarn.

This is a simple afghan from Lion’s Brand Homespun. It features cables on one side and an eyelet pattern on the other.
