Cats Rocking Crochet Chair

This is my latest rocking chair.
The first one was similar to this one, but it did not have a cushioned back or the foot stool to match and it was uncomfortable.
My second one was an actual rocker recliner, that I took from my lounge room, but it took up too much room and every time I dropped my hook, I had to lift the chair up to find it.
Now this one I spotted today at the market, it rocks and has a foot stool which rocks as the stool rocks. It's a bit more comfy than the old one and matches my surrounding furniture.
I couldn't resist a picture on the back of the ute, which reminded me of the Beverly Hillbillies.


Just a funny picture of my daughter who falls down the stairs every other day.

Those Ice-cream cones and Cup Cakes

There are lots of these getting around at the moment.


It's just a matter of increasing in the round as you build the cone.


Make a final row of chains and sc to place the draw string into.


I made all of these in one evening.

I've added some cup cake purses

It's a better look for the base of the cup cake if it is done in fpdc and then a bpdc.
Below left, is a picture of a sc in the round cup cake base

Bullion Stitch Hat



This hat is made to match the bullion stitch neck warmer/scarf.


I will making another and will write the pattern once I make it.
