I went through the first couple pages in the section and didn't see a show off thread. So...show us your crochet!

I wish I could! I am so proud of what I have finished this past two weeks! I finished the 'hound pillow off of the coats & clark website and also the penguin and reindeer off of the Lion yarn website.I just don't have the capabilities to post pictures with this laptop.
My next project is going to be a sweater for our dog to wear in the car while we shop. she likes to go in the car but it's getting so cold I don't want to take her unless I have something warm to wear. She is very shorthaired.

Let me second that "I wish I could"!

I just don't have a digital camera to take any pictures with! I have finished two throw blankets already and am about done with the third one that I had planned. I also started making a few hats, which are so cute. They are just easy beanie style patterns but I used the Bernat Boucle(light pink) yarn and they turned out gorgeous!!!

Here's my most recent one. It's a tawashi, which are just scrubbies. This one in particular is a double layer dish scrubbie. It's from this pattern. I had never worked off of a chart (or in japanese), so I also used the clarification that someone provided on the ravelry page.

I like the big poncho. I've got one on my to-do list for a good keeping warm around the house project

It's cool the way the yarn pooled into vertical stripes on hat 44.

I have to build another photo album of hats.
I have one hat that I made from varigated yarn that totally floored me in the pattern that it ended up being. I probably will keep it. I could not do that again if I tried.

I also should post a link to the poncho I sold, a year ago.
You can find it quicker on my website though.

Your knitting and crochet page doesn't display. Not sure if you knew that. It's .TXT instead of .HTML. I know html really well though and was able to find the grey poncho link

Okay, I will try to fix the page in question.
Thank you for the heads up.

I built the website myself, and am in no way a computer tech.
I just fumble around and sometimes get lucky

I tried to get back to this thread quicker, but my computer has a habit of freezing up lately, and I have to shut down and do a hard re -boot to get going again. Computer will be 10 yrs old in Jan and is a bit of a dinosaur.

One thing I've noticed now that the heat is down is that my hands get really cold when I'm puttering around the house in the evening. I decided to see if some wristwarmers would help. I think they do, and I really like how they turned out.

Can someone please tell me where the instructions are for posting photos? I'm technologically challenged.... (Mind you mine won't be so interesting as yours.... so far just hats and a baby afghan for charity...)

Above the reply box is a little icon that looks like a mountain. Click on that. It'll display a popup that asks for the location of your image.

If it's a photo on your computer, there's a way to attach it if you go to the advanced reply. Way under the reply box there is a "Manage Attachments" button that lets you upload and attach your image to your post.

The help topic is here if you need it.
