part of the wedding she wasn't to pleased since It was to be a formal event lol.
But here he is the star attraction sitting atop of our towel cake mel made.
You see when we got married we got married in traffic court.
My sister in law Kathy stole me and Lewis stopped and got a cake and his (our) mom had
a Kellogg's corn flake box and Lewis cut him out and he was our cake Topper.
We didn't have a car because it had been stolen the week before we got married.

My dear sweet sister in law (yes the one who teaches me crochet)
Made us an anniversary quilt.

with us to Mo. and hung it up.
This dress to me is like most women's wedding gowns lol.

2006-08-17T22:33:00.000-07:00

When I'm done making a set of flip flops
I put them in a freezer bag with the students
name on them. This way when it comes to
there graduation day. I have them ready.
This keeps them clean and from getting mixed
up with a wrong size. I then place them in a plastic
under the bed storage container.
Only 30 more to make lol.

2006-08-17T22:29:00.000-07:00

More student flip flops finished.

2006-08-17T22:22:00.000-07:00

This shows the loomed placement
of the pannel to be attached.
I now lift up center by toe and tie yarn on.
Then I slip stitch or whip stitch the
pannel onto the flip flops with my needle and matching yarn.
Make sure your yarn strip is long enough..
This is soooooo much easier than attaching
it with the panel still on the loom, and
much easier than crocheting them closed.
Ive treid it all.
This is quick and not bulky and no missed
loops, which I was haveing with the other two
methods.

2006-08-17T22:19:00.000-07:00

Attaching yarn and needle at toe

Another picture of my first set of flip flops and Marissa"s hat

2006-06-18T13:13:00.000-07:00

Here are my first set of loomed flip flops using Dana Kruse Pattern. The pattern said knit 10 rows then attach to flip flops. I did that with the first one, but I missed several stitches and had to tie off the missed stitches, doesn't show just has a tighter look to flip flop. On the second flip flop I knitted 9 rows attached knitting to flip flop then knitted off the 10Th row and I also hung stitch counters on the loops I was using to attach to peg like you do for a cuff or hat brim. It made it easier to find the stitch when flip flop was in position to b attached. I use the counters that look like little plastic diaper pens.

Here's the finished hat for my 13 year old granddaughter Marissa.
