Dapple Lace curtain for the powder room....#knitting #lace #knitpicks

Dapple Lace curtain for the powder room....#knitting #lace #knitpicks, a photo by Sinnomen1977 on Flickr.
I'm knitting this curtain after like the 4th time of ripping etc. I'm starting to think this yarn is cursed but I'm DETERMINED to have a pretty lace-y curtain in my bathroom and maybe my kitchen. This yarn has been knit, ripped, sewn on the sewing machine, ripped again, etc. It's mercerized cotton I got on sale a few years ago. The pattern I'm using is....

Missoni Blanket....
However, I am working on the Missoni Blanket for my beloved and I to cuddle under. Fall is pretty much here and it's only downhill covered in snow and ice from here. ::le sigh::
I also did another baby kimono and booties for a friend to take to a baby shower....

Sunshine Dress
I used this tutorial; it was REALLY easy. I think the hardest part was ACTUALLY GETTING STARTED.
I also slapped a belt on it I bought a few years ago from Lane Bryant.
I've dubbed it the Sunshine Dress. I think I picked the fabric (it's a jersey/knit fabric) from Joann's on clearance a while back. I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. Now I just need an occasion to wear it!

Skirt 3/13
I sewed a skirt! LOL....I cant take all the credit tho. I bought the material @Walmart for 50¢ a yard (!!!!!) . All that I did was sew down the side and put a 1.5in hem. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!!!!
