We are moving to Tennessee at the end of the month. So between finding work, finding a new house, and going back to school I have been swamped with responsibilities.

I picked up this great crochet pattern created by Linda Potts called Dino Buddies. It has three patterns in one for a diplodocus, triceratops, and a plesiosaur. The pattern is very well written and easy to read and is about 14 pages long. The pattern can be purchased at woldreamerOTH.etsy.com .

I was going to make my own pattern but I found this fabulous one on CrochetMe.com by designer Melissa1. I finished up the first half of the star pillow and I am now working on the second half. The pattern calls for single crochets, but because I crochet far too tightly I did it with a half double crochets and a 5.00 mm hook. http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/magicalmaus/~3/3081IC1JN3c/wip-star-and-moon-pillows-part-i.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Mausica)0 <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/fhQGkPCoRzp8lxfJRuUM__NAd6c/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/fhQGkPCoRzp8lxfJRuUM__NAd6c/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/fhQGkPCoRzp8lxfJRuUM__NAd6c/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/fhQGkPCoRzp8lxfJRuUM__NAd6c/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p>http://www.magicalmaus.com/2011/02/wip-star-and-moon-pillows-part-i.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307073073916131875.post-6213586294993425613Fri, 04 Feb 2011 07:00:00 +00002011-02-04T01:00:04.393-06:00KnittingRandomOur office building is always so freezing cold even in the summer.
