A Friend's Benefit

So, a friend of mine asked me to make something for her aunt's benefit. I said I would try. With a baby it's harder for me to find time to crochet so I was thinking I could try to whip up some dish cloths and face scrubbies.

I already had a couple sets made so it shouldn't be too hard to get some more made up before May. Cross your fingers!

I picked up a loom and weaving set and thought I'd try my hand at weaving some pot holders - the directions that came with the loom seem a bit vague and while it seems it should be easyish I might look on Youtube for some instructional videos. (Has anyone seen any good ones?)

I'm hoping I can make some pretty knit - like things since I've tried knitting way too many times to count and can't seem to get the hang of it.

So while the baby naps I'm going to make myself a cup of tea and see if I can clean up the living room a bit. Ugh - I hate cleaning.
