My Aunt Gigi lives far away. She doesn't know that I made her this Christmas present yet. I can't wait to see the look on her face. I used this pattern from stitchdiva and a tape yarn that i found at a discount store. I love how this poncho came out!

My cashmere socks are coming along really well. I thought that socks were going to be much harder than they actually are. It really is rewarding that you get to see your progress so very fast.

I got the Debbie Bliss book for Christmas and have been so excited to try my first pair of socks. Although I am not used to using any kind of expensive yarn, I splurged on the cashmerino yarn that is recommended for the pattern.

Grams Yarn Stash Scarf

My Gram taught me how to crochet. She has Alzheimers. So when my Papa asked me to go through her yarn stash, I felt a little strange about it. But I ended up coming up with this scarf. I think that this one I might just have to keep for myself.

Light Basic Scarf

I love this yarn. It was fun to work with and super easy as well. I bought it in yellow as well as this grey color. (The yellow I gave to my cousin so she could learn how to do the basics on something that she thought was fun.) This was done with a simple sc stitch throughout until I ran out of yarn. I added my 'Made by Danielle C' tag on this scarf and it is all ready to give as a gift.

I followed the pattern for this purse from the Happy Hooker. I had the yarn sitting around for years and I like how the neutral colors worked for a purse

I lined the inside of the small purse with a neutral paisley fabric that had also been sitting around the house.
