Granny Hoodie

The Granny Hoodie has been deconstructed and I've started crocheting the squares to a smaller size this is a picture of the difference I'm hoping that the smaller size will be just the right size for the Hoodie

Crochet Hexagon Granny Skirt

This is what I've been working on that I mentioned back in December http://allwoolandayardwide.blogspot.com/2015/12/working-on-something.html

I got the idea of the skirt from here

http://omakoppa.blogspot.fi/2013/02/hexagonhame.html#comment-form



This is what I came up with


I'll try to get some good pictures next time I wear it the pictures I took with it on did not turn out good
It's exactly what wanted and  I am ecstatic about the skirt it turned out wonderful if I do say so myself

Crochet Ear Muffs

I forgot about these... I absolutely love them
 Crocheted Ear Muffs my little bit wanted for her birthday





These were a little difficult to do I tried what everyone online did and bought the headband from a store and crocheted around it ...that did not work... the ear muffs were not tight enough and fell off her head or set way bellow where her ears were ... I used a heavy gauge wire cut to her head size instead and looped the ends into a half dollar size circle wrapped the wire with duct tape and then  crocheted around that... The ear muffs were stuffed by sewing two scrap fabric circles together and stuffing them like making a little pillow ... These ear muffs  stay on her head and do not fall off

Fingerless Gloves in Star Stitch

Working on these I've finished two other sets that I'll get pictures of and post soon

I really like this stitch 

I know some people don't understand fingerless gloves but I really like them especially when I'm crocheting
