I have a SIL getting married in june and thought Id give here some strange kitchen items(she is strange)

[Jimmie Lu]

Guess I am all alone!!!
Thats ok I dont mind!

[Ilene]

Jimmie Lou, I thought the pants where really cute. I"ve been in the middle of doing a bunch of socks for Christmas. Those little darlings don't look that hard, I think I just may join you.

[minwifeof4boys]

:hook I don't know how I missed this... I'm in... what a great gift....

Guess I'll go out tomorrow and buy the fixins:hook

[auntbubbels]

I want to do this but I have to get to the yarn store and get more kitchen cotton - I ran out

[smyz64]

I will join as soon as I finish off a couple other WIPs.

[ChainOFools]

[Jimmie Lu]

yeah!!!! Sice I will be gone tommorrow and sunday I am going to start mine Monday hopefully. I really need you ladies to make sure I do this the wedding is in 2 weeks yikes!!

[ChainOFools]

Okay gang, mine are done. I altered the pattern on the site only a small bit, by adding a simple sc edging on mine.

You can see the pic on my blog by clicking here (http://byhookorbycrook.blogspot.com/2006/06/clothy-mcwipey.html)

Thanks for looking! :D

[minwifeof4boys]

I love the colors Kiki,...I am thinking about making a pair to give to my future DIL at her Lingerie Bridal Shower a week from Mon. :D

[irikel]

This is what I came up with. The pattern calls for size 10 thread but I decided to do it in cotton...Ki ki..yours turned out really cute.

[angelfire]

I love both pictures so far. I guess that can be my project today as I have to wait on some thread to work on my sundress.

[twistedstitcher]

Hi everyone:hi I'm new here and just came for a bit of a look around when I came across this call for a CAL. How cute!! :ducky I just couldn't resist printing out this pattern and letting you know that I'd love to join you all on this one. Fortunately I have some cotton in my stash that I can play with. I'm hoping one ball/skein of cotton will be enough as that's all I have of each colour. The pattern doesn't state how much is required. :huh If any of you have made this, I'd love to know if one skein will be ok.

Anyway, just wanted to say hi and hope to get to know some of you a little better. Hopefull will post a pic of my finished britches soon as well.

hugs, Dot (Australia):tup

[ChainOFools]

Thanks all for the compliments! :D
Olga, your pants are adorable! I'm loving the belt! :clap

Dot, I used the large skein of Bernat Handicrafter cotton, not the little individual skeins, but my guess would be you'd probably need 1 1/2 - 2 of the little skeins to do these. They would be cute striped, I'm thinking ;)

[crochetprincess66]

I think these are soooo cute! :c9 I'm going to start working on them as soon as I am done posting this! Thanks for the pattern.

Kim:hook

[irikel]

Olga, your pants are adorable! I'm loving the belt! ;)

[crochetprincess66]

[Ilene]

Here is my contribution to the kitchen pants! Very easy and fun to do, I'm going to give these to my daughter when she (finally) moves out.

[Jimmie Lu]

They look so cool!!! I am glad to be done with a quick project for my SIL

[ChainOFools]

Kim & Ilene,

Those are some cute pants! Love all the colours! :D

[minwifeof4boys]

I finished two pair... just because it was so quick..I am giving on to my DIL on MOnday evening for her lingerie shower....:D

[amyquilt]

OMG OMG OMG!

These are too cute and this CAL is just too tempting to pass up. This will be my first CAL! I'm looking for "little" projects to keep busy until we move and this fits the bill perfectly.

My dh has to go work out of town next week...so Monday night...it's crochet the dishcloth bloomers time! :cheer

So, just how much cotton yarn did any of you need to do these?

Thanks for starting this!

Amy

[Ilene]

LOL Amy, I only had to use one small spool of 2 1/2 oz. At AC Moore's yesterday I found 1 pound bags of cotten yarn for $5 each in several different colors and bought 2 bags. I'm on a roll here and am going to make a matching set complete with potholders and dish towel. (dish towel is done except for the trim) Will post pictures when done.

[amyquilt]

Woo Hoo...got my yarn today! Can't wait to work on these Monday!

I'll post a photo when they're done!

What a great CAL for my first one!

Amy

[itch2stitch]

Here's another one I can't resist - I'm in, too, if that's OK:yay

[Ilene]

Okay ladies here is my complete kitchen set! I did this with the bargin cotton yarn that I got from AC Moore last week. There where some knots in it and some of you may be able to see the dark spot in the bloomers where the color is a bit off. All in all I think it makes a cute set.

itch2stitch - Hi and Welcome to the CAL. This one is truely neat and quick to do.

Minwifeof4boys - Have fun tonight at the party and remember to take some time for you.

[eurolyons]

I'm half way through the pattern...so adorable...I showed the pattern to a friend of mine and she thought they were for a baby, so I had to explain the concept to her and she thought it was great...my cat is "helping" me while I crochet this and watch an Alias DVD...

[eurolyons]

Oh and I'm using Lion Brand Kitchen Cotton in dark blue...

I hope this link works...this is my submission...

[minwifeof4boys]

I always get a bit freaked out when I see your name in print....not sure why ..
I know there had to be other LeAnna's in the world... and my mom thought she was being so clever:D

[eurolyons]

So you're a LeAnna to? Cool. Could you see the picture okay?

[amyquilt]

Woo Hoo! Mine are done!!

Ilene, your kitchen set is very nice!

[auntbubbels]

Since we are celebrating Holidays in July, I thought I would do my kitchen pants in xmas colors. I didnt have any ribbon so I used yarn to tie the bows.

[minwifeof4boys]

Those are so cute! They will make great gifts

:D

[KnicKnac]

My sister went to my blog and saw how I am addicted to making dishcloths now and said she wants some to match her kitchen! Guess what she is getting????

I am going out today to get the yarn, will be making these in B&W Lion Cotton - will post the results!!!

[CrazeeMoi]

Beautiful job there ladies!! Would someone please tell me the approximate size of the squares? I am not a back and forth crocheter, I prefer going arnd, like granny squares. Thanks for any help!

[Ilene]

Mine came out about 7 inches square.

[amyquilt]

I've made a 2nd set of these "bloomers". I made them in navy/white Kitchen Cotton by Lion...but haven't had time to snap a photo yet.

OMG YES!!! Dishcloths are addicting! I've got the addiction now, too. :devil

Amy

[KnicKnac]

Well I finally got around to getting the yarn last evening. Started working on these last night. Doing them exactly to pattern - almost half done with the first leg.

I am doing mine in Lion's Kitchen Cotton, black and white.
