Merry Christmas-Deck the Halls

I am sitting here listing to Christmas carols and chilling rushing to finish this blog before I hit the sack. I've been trying to do t his post for days, I don't know why the computer gods are messing with me. However, despite all these minor obstacles and challenges in my way , I've been keeping very
busy. I made this crochet boloro for Purls of Hope, a Charity I contribute to on my job, this was my last project for the year. This pattern is from Bebbie Stroller 'Happy Hooker" Stich N Bitch learn to crochet book (p168) . I should have made it in a solid color to really show the beautiful pattern, next time maybe. It's the holiday's so I made my self a Kwanzaa project tote & bag set. The fabric is from leftovers African print in purple & gold.
This is the inside of the bag, I made pockets and it;s fully lined.

I had so may sock patterns I printed off the webb, and then Necia (Thank you necia) sent me about an 90 pages so I decided to cover a portofolio and made a album to put them in. All you need is a little imagination you don't really need a pattern , I used the portfolio a guide to make the pattern , 1 yrd of your favorite print some batting, fabric glue, lace, ribbons etc. and your imagination.

At the moment there is very little on my needles due to the holidays, I just finished a pair of socks it will be on my next post, I am finally knitting my self a scarf I needed it too.

That's it folks
Here is wishing you guys a very
