Christmas In July #3

Now the patterns today are more my sort of style.  I must admit I am very partial to several of these and have made a couple of them several times.  I hope you will find some to help you out in your search for gifts.  Enjoy !

Denim Vest

Needless to say this can be made in any color you choose but I have made mine in dark blue just because blue is my favorite color.  Very simple and quick to make.


Perfect Pocketed Shawl

Now this one I have made several times and have not found a color I didn't like yet.  I did change the one for my Mother and made it a little wider for her, she really likes to wear it all the time.
Simple Shrug

This shrug is very easy as there is not much shaping to it.  It is more of a sweater to me than it is a shrug, but it still works up nicely.

Cozy Shrug

This is one that you really want to cuddle up with.  I made it out of the softest yarn (don't remember the name) and my Aunt just loved it because she could stay snuggled up all day.

  2. Oh, they are all great patterns. I especially love the denim vest and the cozy shrug. I've crocheted something similar that I might send my mom in Germany this year!

  3. Love the simple shrug. I need to be twins, maybe triplets so I can try everything I see that I like.
