Waiting and Crocheting

IMG_2742Waiting for the storm.  Sandy is supposed to show her effects late tomorrow into Tuesday.  Hoping (and praying) that this is not as bad as they are predicting.  While waiting I will have the hook moving. 

I am currently working on another wool eater which will be a gift.  Shades of purples and greens.  Its been a while since I made mine so I am totally enjoying this again.  Its such a great, heavy blanket.  I just love mine, hope the recipient of this will feel the same.

Started the Holiday Cables Throw which is the 2nd Christmas freebie provided by Red Heart. 
I am so pleasantly surprised at how easy this has been so far and what a beautiful afghan.

I am doing this in the aran/ecru color but I will have to have one sometime in the future in the red.

Either one of these ghans is such a wonderful treat for the cold months, all warm and cozy.

Thinking of you all along the east coast.  Prayers for everyone's safety.
