Did I spell her name right?   This was a baby afghan made for a cousin's baby. I regret giving it away, because the person I gave it to didn't appreciate it at all. Didn't even get a "thank you." Bummer. It turned out so pretty, though. Guess I'll have to make another one.

This is a crocheted tare panda (it's a Japanese animated character). I think it means "lazy panda". Made this for my brother for Christmas. I know, I know. I'm late to the game here, but thought anyone who likes tare panda might like to see this. I'm pretty proud of him, since I had to learn to read the charts that were in the Japanese book and figure out what the words mean for leg and head and such.

Sophie (the kitty) was interested in it conceptually, but not practically.   She hates it.

I was on a doily kick for a while. Now I've moved on to potholders. Guess I needed the instant gratification of little easy potholders. Anyway, here are a few doilies. The third one is the one I'm most proud of. It's very heavily textured. The second doily pictured (with the little hearts) was a free one online but I modified it a little because the directions were wonky.

I've been lax on posting any of the items I crochet, so I'm going to start adding things here.

First up, a Harry Potter inspired hat and scarf I made for a former co-worker. (The background project is a blanket I made a long time ago using Homespun.) I know the scarf and hat are pretty basic. I've done much more elaborate things, but I'm fond of them. 

Made this for my brother.    It's a Totoro from My Neighbor Totoro (movie).
