When the jam is finished, the jar is cleaned and gets a jacket. Simple crochet that doesn't require a pattern or much thought. I have lots and lots of jars that need little jackets.
We were to have another textile meeting tonight but it was cancelled due to illness and other conflicts. Of course, that doesn't mean that I didn't have my own little yarn session going on. Yesterday Marilyn at Room on the Left posted a heart pattern that I tried out.
I added my own white lacy bit around the whole thing. And I found this green sparkly yarn that I bought years ago so am making more Christmas trees.
Unfortunately, it is time for me to put the hook and yarn away and call it a night in my corner of the world. Hope you are having a wonderful Wednesday!

You're becoming quite proficient in your crocheting! Those are lovely items. :)
What do you do with all the jars in their jackets?
I've never been one to save and reuse things that much but I will confess that reading your blog has inspired me and this is the first Christmas that I can remember saving little containers and turning them into gift boxes, etc. I aim to get more creative with that in time, because I am all for reusing items - it's not that - it's just that I never took the time before to do it. So... that being written - you've inspired! :)
Hope you have a great remainder of the week. Not much of it or the month left for me. I work tomorrow part of the day, and then am off until Tuesday. And then I'll only have 6 days until I'm off for the remainder of the month until January 4. Life is rough. ;)
Blessings always,
Linda
You are so talented.....
I caught up at the office today after being gone for a few days, visiting daughter and granddaughter (so hard to leave them)
Cookies and yarn!! Sounds like a perfect bit of time to me. blessings ~ tanna

There are fancy cookies and then there are the ones to just eat. Yours look so delicious. Your yarn projects are delightful. Diane
Awwwww, Tammy, your little heart is adorable! Hope you are having a super week. Susan
I personally think the cookies are perfect. Home Baked shouldn't look like Store Bought.
I just love those little Trees. If I can find some yarn (and time) I'd love to make a few for friends.
Love your little heart and tree. Cookies look perfect to me, there's always shop bought not so tasty for the perfectionist. keep baking.

Hi Tammy,
Your cookies look delicious and I am sure they all got eaten quickly.

Have a great weekend

Hi~ Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I visited your post about Geneva, IL. It's a great town, isn't it? It's where I was born and raised but now live about 10 miles from there. So here's what a small world it is ... your blogging friend, Susan at Circle of Buttons ... is someone I know! I teach computer classes at the library where she works. I can't wait to tell her that I met you through blogging!
The cookies look very tasty. The little tree is so cute and would make nice little coasters for the table at Christmas time.
Mmmmmmm....if that is what you bring when you visit someone...I am free on Saturday. Want to come to my house for a visit? :)

Cookies and crochet. Sounds like a perfect night to me!! I love the sparkly green yarn for your trees. I am looking forward to seeing how much of your handiwork makes it onto your own tree this year. Make sure you take a picture when you get your tree up!! I can't wait to see it!!
XOXO
