Basket Liner

I got this basket from mom. I lined it with duck cloth and am using it for my stash of leftover yarn balls. Another thing to remember mom by.

Anna's LIttle Neck Scarf

Anna's little neck scarf. I made the pattern up as I went, from a picture Anna gave me. The yarn is Lion Brand Chenille. I used 2 strands held together, one was a wine red the other one was mixed reds. The buttons came from the button stash Mom gave me.

Water Tower Cozy

I found this video on the Craft Magazine blog. It is of fiber artist Robyn Love's crocheted 10,000 gallon water tower cozy. 

The project used 32 MILES of Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick yarn!

For more information on the project, which took Robyn and 6 crocheters 3 weeks of speed-crocheting to put together, please visit Lion Brand.
