Green Plaid Baby Blanket



Last night was the first time I crocheted a decorative edge around a blanket using my new Skip Stitch Blade to cut the holes first. It made things so much easier! I was so happy I found the Skip Stitch! Its a great product. You can purchase this blanket at my new Artfire shop!

How to Make a Credit Card Holder

Watch this movie for instructions on how to make my Credit Card Wallet. Or - if you don't want to make one visit my Etsy page at alanemarie.etsy.com.


Credit Card Wallet


I wanted a new wallet but the kind I wanted did not have enough slots for my membership cards and credit cards so I decided to make my own! I still carry the wallet I bought but the credit card wallet is just that - a wallet for cards. I found a site called craftbits that had some instructions for making a smaller wallet to hold money and a few cards so I modified it to make what I had in mind. Here are some pictures of the results. If you want one too let me know. $5.00 each.



Crocheted Clutch

Brad and I took a ride to Cedar City and on the way I crocheted this little clutch. I got the pattern from Lion Brand Yarn's site. If you register you can get all kinds of patterns. I think it turned out pretty well. Its my first purse.It is 9 1/2" wide and 6 1/2" tall and opens up pretty wide.
