Here are the coasters!

Kay, here are those coasters you've heard so much about:

Sorry some of the pictures are so blurry. I don't know why they are. Maybe cause I was zoomed in all the way and I was right up close to them when I took the pictures.

Well anyways, hopefuly today I'll sell 'em all. I'm so sick of them layin' around!

Its me!!! And crochet!!!

Hello! Its me, Olivia! The creater of this blog! Well, here are the projects I've been working on.

Can you guess what this is?

Its a blanket! I'm making it for a lady's grandson. I went to see if she wanted to buy some coasters and she said she was more interested in blankets. I went out and bought some blue yarn and now I'm almost halfway done!

This is a hat I'm making for myself. Its very cozy and warm!

Here is a blanket my friend started and never finished. She gave it to me and I've been working on it.


That's about all the projects I'm working on now. In the next post I'll show you those coasters I've been telling you about.

FINALLY A HAT PATTERN!!! AND SOME PICTURES!!!!!

Ok, since I don't really feel like messing around with the pattern page (I know, I'm getting to be really lazy. Blame our big puffy couch that I LOVE!!!) cause its kinda messed up I'm going to write the pattern right here.

Hat Pattern:

Note: I used a 6 mm hook (a big one. not huge but big) and some homespun yarn

Chain five. Join with a slip stitch, chain two, and turn.

Do eight single crochet stitches around the loop

Join with a slip stitch when you get to the first stitch

Chain two and do two single crochet stitches in the first stitch and one in the second

Keep on going like that until you get to the first stitch

Join, chain two, and increase in every other stitch for bout four more rows

Crochet normally on one row and increase in every other stitch in the next row

Keep on doing that until the hat is as wide as you want it then just keep on crocheting until its as long as you want it.

I hope this pattern wasn't too complicated. If you have any questions just comment.

Now for some pictures!!! You can finally see what me and my brother and sister look like!!!

This is my brother Kellen on the left and my cousin Jacob.

And here is my sister B'Elanna!! I can't post a picture of myself right now because I just realized that when I put the pictures I took on my camera into the computer I hadn't taken a picture of me yet and it takes a minute so you'll see me tomorrow. Then you'll see the projects I'm working on!!! I'm so glad I got my camera!!!

See ya'll later!

Dreams

I've been reading a lot about dreams lately, mostly lucid dreaming. Lucid dreaming is when you realize you are dreaming and you can then control what happens in the dream. There is a very cool website that teaches you how to do it. There is also a forum where you can talk about dreams with other people. Here is the link:http://world-of-lucid-dreaming.com/

I'm sorry I haven't written anything in practically FOREVER. I'll admit it, I've been lazy. Before today I hadn't crocheted for almost a month. It felt good to have a hook in my hand and yarn running through my fingers. I'm still going to be doing a lot of crocheting this weekend and probably at least half of next week though. I have about a million projects going on. Two blankets, a scarf, a dress for my Barbie, a sweater for my baby doll, coasters for my grandmomma, more coasters to sell, and arm warmers. I'm also trying to decorate my room. I know I posted a LONG time ago that I was going to decorate my room but I haven't done much other than hanging up some cardboard lollypops and moving two things around.
And me and my friends like to hang out outside. We ride our scooters and bikes all over the neighborhood.
And there are the chores to do. I have to either load and unload the dishwasher or wash clothes everyday.
But you don't want to hear my exuses do you? You want to hear what I've been doing. Crocheting a little today, hanging out with friends, surfing the internet, and thats about it. Well and the chores I do but those don't really count cause they take about five minutes.
I guess thats all I have to say. Oh! Another thing, I'll post a hat pattern soon. If you can hold out until Monday so I can get a few of my projects done then I'll see about it.

Couple new things...

Ok I've got to get off of the computer in a minute cause I've been on it long enough. I just want to say I've put more blogs I've found recently on my favorite blogs and websights list. And a new poll is coming soon. Oh and have you noticed my new Total Pageviews counter thingy? Cool ain't it? Can you believe I've gotten up to over a thousand???
