Crochet Sock Monkey in progress.......

I don't know why, but I had this strange yearning to make a Sock Monkey. I guess I just really liked how the Patons wool yarn felt so soft at my LYS! Buy the Yarn, a pattern will come!! LOL So, this is my first "Leg" of the pattern, coming along quite nicely....if I may say so myself. So here it is so far..........................

Baby Brianna and her Blankie!

As promised, here is the finished doll and her blankie. I really enjoyed making this, it was very easy and worked up quickly!! I will give it to my friend tomorrow, I sure hope she likes it! I will let you know!

Baby Brianna Christmas Dress

Pattern by Maggies Crochet. I have been working on this for a friend of mine, she was one of 8 children and I recently found out she never had a doll growing up. So I will be giving this to her on Monday. I just have to finish the roses and attach them to the blankie and the dress and hat. The blankie is complete as well as the hat. I will share the entire outfit on the doll hopefully tomorrow.

This is how I spent my New Years Day. It was really rainy, windy and COLD here today. I am not sure the temp even got to 55 degrees today. I know, I know some of you gals are dealing with the snow and ice, but this Florida Gal needs a blankie when the temp goes below 70!!!
