Pale Pink and White Baby Blanket
Here is another blanket I found stored in my storage bin. I love it, but it is hard to see the pale pink and white in the pictures :)
Pink baby blanket
Yesterday I was looking for my sewing needles. What a crazy thing to misplace. Anyway, I went through all my storage bins and didn't find them. I did find some blankets that I made before I started my Etsy store though. And since I stored them in the bin in my closet, they were not in the stack that I donated. Soooo.... I am going to put them on my Etsy store. Here is the pink baby blanket. It is 30 x 36" and very soft. :)

Another Sock Monkey Day
I woke up this morning to a Khaki, Red, and White Sock Monkey Set
order :) Then I got a request for an army sock monkey set. And lastly I
have a request for a Minnie Mouse Purse. Looks like the personal
tissue holders that I planned making are going to be made a different
day.
I'm still trying to picture a design that I like for the army sock monkey. The camouflage yarn is a little dark and makes the face difficult to see. I'll have to keep looking and see if I find an idea that I like. I'm not sure I have the yarn on hand right now, so I will have to go hunting in the yarn bins and see what I have on hand.
Wow! Now that's a pompom
At least you can see the eyes.
Maybe like this but in a different face color.
I like this one, but it kind of blends all together.
This one you can see, but it doesn't remind me of the army.
The face is too dark, but otherwise I really like these.
Once again, the face is too dark.
I'll have to see what yarn I have on hand and perhaps experiment :)
I really like the army hat. So.... I went on etsy and purchased an army hat pattern. I wonder if I can make it part of my sock monkey hat???
This one had different colors.
This is the hat pattern I purchased. I like the big brim.
Here is a different pattern, but I already have a pattern like this one.
I bought the pattern, and it is well worth it!!! It is a wonderful hat! I made a diaper cover to match. The yarn is a little stiffer than what I normally use, but I think that works well for the hat.
Here is one of the army monkeys that I came up with. I really like how this one turned out. I had to pull out the straps several times. If you mix green, red, and white, it looks very Christmasy.
I think that with the red straps it just looks like a camouflage sock monkey :)
This sock monkey turned out reminding me of a clown. I don't think that is a good thing. I like the colors, but I think it is the mouth that throws me off. I am wondering if I want to make the mouth white with red lips. I am not fond of it how it is right now. Maybe someone will like a clownish, green, sock monkey :)
I took off the mouth and tried again. I like this a little better.

I like this much better. I will post this now :)
