drop design halter

I made this at the beginning of the summer. I got my mother-in-law to line it for me and she did a spankin awesome job!!! I'm very happy with it, however, it is a very revealing top and I believe I will crochet a little more around the back. There's a lot of side boob showing, which can be sexy (but not around in-laws/parents),so I am going to add from the side of the cups around.
I will probably make another one as well. The top fits great, but the pattern called for the "skirt part" to be buttoned up rather than the seams sewed, so I will do that with the next halter because I think it would fit better.

round ripple (so far)

This is a "progress report" of my round ripple. So far, this is what I've got! I am going to decrease the white and increase the black. I like it, but I just think it needs less white, it's too bright!!!

giant fat bottom bag

This is my giant fbb. I did 30 inc. rows, 30 straight, and 30 dec. rows. Basically, I doubled the whole pattern, including the base chain.
To give you an idea of the size, it goes from shoulder to hip. The second picture has the FBB from the original pattern: stitches, rows, base, everything as per the pattern.

mini purse

I dont remember the title for this, but it is in SNB. Real easy. Took about a day. I want to find a better flower pattern. I saw one on Crochetville, and PMed the lady, but she never responded. It was 3-Dish.
This is going to be a gift for a friend, but I want to find a way to make the handles more stiff. I was thinking maybe putting wooden skewers thru the top stitches, or single crocheting them into the top. I dunno yet.

shrug

This was quite easy to make. I am not too happy with it tho. The front is supposed to be right below the bust and this goes down to the belly. I wanted it to be medium, but it came out like an extra large. I dont know what to do with this!!! I will probably make another one anyway, but I dont want to until I know what went wrong.

capelet

I LOVE this! Its also from SNB. I guess I couldn't live without that book! My finished project came out with a little more drape than the picture in the pattern. I don't even know what kind of yarn I used because I had this yarn for about a year and a half. Back then, I just threw the label away! Ugh, rookie! But, the capelet used less than one skein. I had to finaggle a little bit with the gauge to get it right. Also, these pom poms were my first!!!

sweet pea shawl

This is the sweet pea shawl from SNB. It was sooooo easy. wow. I did that thing in like 3 days. I couldn't believe it went by so fast! I like it. I left the tassels off because I don't really like them that much. I don't know when I will ever need a shawl, but I'm sure it's just nice to have one just in case!

1st original design

This is my very first original pattern! I have a hard time finding a purse at the store, so I decided to design my own. It works out great. It is lovely and I am proud.

The second picture, my mother-in-law ripped out the lining that I had done in the first picture and made it better. She also reinforced the strap so that it doesn't hang so much. She has about 50 years seamstress experience over my hemming jeans experience.
