[Nfb-krafters-korner] What Crafts Are You Doing Now?

 LM;
What is the patern for the scarf, you are talking about, here.  How can you have a single and a double crochet in the same row?  They are not the same length.  I am guessing, separate rows.  
I did one with 2 rows of single crochet and then one row of double and repeat the patern.
It came from Henry!

I am cleaning up!

Hi all,

Just because ... I thought it would be nice to share what current
projects people are working on.

I've recently signed up for emails from All Free Crochet. They send a
ton of emails, but some of them are really fun, and fast, stuff you
can make.

recently, I learned how to make a 5-minute crocheted heart. I've made
a handful of them and have been giving them to my son to play with. I
also slipped one into my hubby's jacket pocket the other day. My son
took one of his hearts to school and played with it like a yo yo since
I kept a long string attached to it. He asked me for a big blue heart
so I made one from the Bernat Baby Blanket yarn.

I've been looking for patterns for baby sleep sacks or cocoons. I've
thought of designing my own on the loom, but I think I found a crochet
pattern I will try via crochet and then adapt on the loom (or the
other way around). So, this is not a current project, but a future one
I hope to do.

I also just bought yarn for a Puerto Rican flag lap blanket I want to
make for my grandma who is the crocheter in the family. I have to make
two because my great grandma is turning 100 in June and we're going to
the party. I can't make my grandma a blanket and nothing for my great
grandma.

So, I've got two future projects, but am currently working on two as
well...no three...

I had to rip out about 9 rows of the heart afghan Debbie taught in
January. I just started looming it again.

I am two fifths of the way done with a star-shaped blanket I'm making
for my son or the family. It's in preparation of making the white star
on the Puerto Rico flag.

And finally, I found an easy scarf pattern on All Free Crochet that is
called a Classic Strap scarf. I'm making it 1 in a half times wider
since I felt 8 chanin stitches across using a K hook was too narrow. I
started it last night instead of going to bed. I'm using Denim Mist,
which is from Lion Bran, I think it is Jiffy? Anyways, it uses a
unique pattern of single crochet and then double crochet repeated
across the row. I've done about two inches and will keep working on
that as my BART ride craft project.

Okay, what are all of you doing?

LM
