Detour

I'm taking a break from neck projects to work on some of my Dakota County Fair projects and other projects that I want to make. Many of the fair projects are vintage patterns so I'll share those as I finish them. 

Here are some of the ones I have planned.

• A baby sweater from 1974 (I'll have this one ready next week)
• A baby afghan from The Easy Art of Ripple Crochet (1973)
• possibly a few garments from The Easy Art of Ripple Crochet (1973)
• A pillow from 1975
• A potholder set from 1975

After the fair is over I'll do a few more neck projects. I found some cute bibs and collars along with some scarves that will be fun to make.

In the meantime, here are some very colorful projects from The Woman's Day Book of Designer Crochet by Jacqueline Henderson published in 1980.

These hats are awesome if I'd had this book last year I definitely would have made at least one.

Can't leave out the swimwear!

I'm not saying I'll make one of these neckpieces for sure but if I can decide what to substitute for rattail one might make it to the list.
