Washcloths and Handmade Soaps for my Grand Chitlins 49/365

Trying to come up with gift ideas for my Granddaughters. Hard work. Exhausting. They don't need toys. They don't need clothes. Money is good but not necessarily spectacular enough unless it's 100$ bills, which I don't have sooooooooooo...

How about some hand knit Washcloths and Handmade soap? OK winner!




The soap is from Etsy seller kari143ann. You can visit her shop HERE

I also made custom hardback books on Walgreens.com for each set of kids. Too cool.

12 Pt Ball for Sadie and Zabrina 36/365

Still tweaking the 12 pt ball design. I am now thinking 6 rds between decreases is too much but the ball will be fine for two active little girls...Grandma Becky loves you!!!

You can find the pattern HERE

I used a whole bag of fiberfill stuffing this puppy lol! Hey that's good...free up some space yeahhhhhhhhhh!

Red Purse for a Princess 14/365

Did This little crocheted purse is for my friend, Brian's, little princess of a Grandaughter (did you know grandaughter is not a proper word? I'm using it anyway...take that Mr Webster)

Same premise as the potholder....ch 20-25, single crochet around and around forming a flat tube. Make decreases for flap. I just winged it really. On last rd with main color make button loop. Trim with furry stash yarn. Add strap, add button. Tuck in a card with some dollar bills inside. Oh and don't forget the CD for Brian..Check!
