Winter Nights, Makes Me Want to Make A Monkey Blanekt
It's that time of year again. Time to grab your favorite blanket, a cup of coffee, put on your old slippers, sit in your favorite chair and crochet or knit something warm and cozy.
Well, I'm on a blanket kick at my house and since some of you have been asking about the monkey pattern (no longer available directly from me because it's going to be in a Annie's Attic Leaflet with several other pattern in February, yippee), I thought it might be nice to make a Monkey Huggy Blanket. Hope you like it. Keep warm and speedy needles and hooks to you if you are making someone a special gift.

Things to show off
Were you wondering where I've been? I'm here and guess what...I've even gotten some things finished (and added to the house, speaking of the old trunk below). The trees are even up and decorated with time to spare. Hope you have something fun on your hooks and needles.

| Okay, I didn't make it, but I found it and had to have it. I'll be filling it with vintage knitting items soon |

Sharing Pictures of Your Finished Toys
I love it when you send me pictures of your finished toys. Every toy has his or her own unique personality and its fun to see how they turn out.
I thought it would be nice if we could all see them and talk about them. I just set up a new "Cute Crochet"
group. We'll be able to share pictures, and chat about crocheting. Hope you join us:
