Christmas Cupcakes

Time away from crochet for my sweet girl ... Making reindeer cupcakes

Crochet Eagle Hat

Over the football season I was looking for ideas of things I could crochet that's when the first eagle hat was hooked and it became a huge hit everybody reminded us every game that you better bring the hat ... Well last week ..it was said can you make me one before Christmas so I've been hooking like crazy to get another hat done Eagle Hats have so many components and lots of sewing ...I keep saying this will be my last one

Playing With Yarn

Browsing over my Pinterest pins ...I have a Next Projects  to keep track of what I really want to do next but I end up having to do what I need to do like the Santa hat it was for a nice lady saying how fast can you crochet me a Santa hat well I figured out ...not that fast... Because I  get frustrated over patterns and end up doing it the way I want to instead(which takes a lot longer) then following other people's patterns like the crocheted  elf shoes another not on my next project pins... my daughter came home and said hey mom I need a green shirt and pants for a play "I'm going to be an elf" do y'all have any idea how hard it is to find green pants well it was a I'm done searching and looking... Went out and bought green fleece and made some quick pj pants but of course as soon as I was putting the elf costume together I wanted elf slippers for her .. Crochet pattern were few and far between so again a lot of ripping out and starting over till I figured out something that worked... Wow that was a rant back to Pinterest next project section I pinned a houndstooth scarf a while back thinking I'll get to that next but as you can see other projects keep getting in the way ...but I started it tonight  and am enjoying the pattern here's a pic

And here's a link to the pattern http://www.elkstudiohandcraftedcrochetdesigns.com/2013/01/23/excited-about-crochet-patterns/

If you haven't checked out this site yet I would take a look there's some amazing patterns there

So to narrow things down
On The Hook
1.Chevron blanket
2. Houndstooth scarf
Ohhh
3. I do have a Beach towel not complete yet I'll have to pull it back out so I can take pics
But on the Needles is another story
1. shrug
2.Cowl
3. A never ending men's sweater which might never be complete
I think that narrows down everything but there might be something else shoved in a closet somewhere

Christmas Hooking

Here's what I've been up to!!
