Blue Jeans Neck Warmer


Okay, so I'm in love with this one.  It's super thick and soft!  I made it in about three hours last night while watching Dallas, Diamond Divers, and some of what came on before and after those shows.  This is an excellent pattern.  Every pattern should be this good...lots of pictures and very clear instructions.  Here are the details:

Free Pattern:  City Neck Warmer by Donna Okoro
Yarn:  2 skeins Lionbrand Jiffy in Denim
Hook:  Size J

I'm still always amazed that you can take this...


And a few hours later have this...


Amazing!
I love crochet!

**********************


The dogs are all clean!  This picture shows how slick Eli is with a fresh shave.  I know it's a shame to shave a dog with beautiful hair like Eli's, but it's just such a pain in the ass!  It's much easier to keep him clean, and there is way less hair around the house with it shaved.

I took the weirdest picture yesterday totally by accident.  Wanna see it?  Okay, here ya go...


Ha-ha-ha!
Two dogs, one head...creepy!

*******************

I've got to go find something to crochet.

Thanks for dropping by.
You sure do look pretty today.

Bye!

Oh Pam, that is truly beautiful. I love it -- and the closure is so unique. (But most of all I love your clean doggies. They are so cute.)

I think this is great. I also think you might really wear this one. Love the pic of the two dogs, too funny. Lots of family in pre-evac mode in Colorado fires. Four houses near Air Force Academy and two in Boulder. Dad is in Denver so fine. All are still OK, but cars are packed and ready when called. Missed Dallas last night, watched SYTYCD, bummer.

You need to find something to crochet? I have a suggestion. How about a muffler/scarf/neck warmer? LOL Love this one too, Pammy. Great color. And I feel the same as you about creating something from skeins of yarn. Amazing! That dog photo is outrageous! Ha ha ha.

Now that is a gorgeous cowl/scarf! I agree, it's amazing that you can take a ball of string and create your very own fabric! Love it! That dog photo is a crackup! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

Pammy, I LOVE this!!! It is so pretty, and different than so many others. Love the color too.
I cracked up at the dog picture!!!! So funny. I keep Ducey pretty short in the summer too. It is so hot here, and he has such long, thick and curly hair!
I need a new crochet project too!!!!!
