Rag Rug, Love it!

Here is a picture of my frenchie on my rag rug! Easy to clean, I just shake, wash and dry. A great way to use old sheets or teach a child to crochet. You could make also make placemats.
tutorial here
I did take a stitch in the fringe, it randomly  comes off in the wash or dry. I just used machine sewing thread, takes a little time but well worth it.

This yarn is so pretty, however it just doesn't show in the picture as well.

Knit Pink Baby Dress

 I have been learning to knit in the round, and their has been a lot of little things to learn. I have unpicked a few times. This pink dress was originally a blessing dress pattern. I used red heart baby love yarn in pink and green and the lavender or purple is
Bernat baby coordinates. I am still thinking about doing the bottom rib over. I might just unpick and do it right, I just purled. I should have knit one row and purled the next, then it would have not rolled. I hope you like this, I am very please how it turned out. I used the pattern from the
Precious Heirloom 
and I just knit instead of the pattern and then an inch and a half before the bottom of the dress and sleeve I knit 4 yo knit 2 together all the way around for three rows. the middle row I shifted 2 stitches. Using the bigger yarn made it more for a 3-6 month old.
