Take Two

well I kept on looking at the afghan hook case I made .. and the minute I took the pic of it I didn't like the color combo...Ox told me to leave it it's fine... I couldn't leave it..so I ripped the case apart and put it back together... If I don't like things I have to fix them .. I'm happy with it now

The 4.5mm hook is in use ;)

My First Crochet Socks

I Finished the other sock I don't know why but I let just one lonely sock sit there forever FYI do not do that lesson learned crochet both socks together it helps to keep them matching ... This was just a trial pair so I used dollar bin yarn  no I don't think the yarn is pretty but wanted to use cheap yarn in case I had to toss them but I think I'll keep these and wear them at bed time I'll make some pretty ones now that I know the general pattern

Crochet Crowd "Stitch is Right Game"

I have never done a Crochet A Long type thing.... I am enjoying it
I know I've told y'all before that one of my goals each year is to learn a new stitch so the game has helped me check that off my list

See and Make

You ever see something in a catalogue and have to have?
Well I do....
Here's a scarf I saw I thought it was knit for the longest time I tried at least 4 different knit stitches and they didn't look like it so I finally took a picture with my phone and sent it to a friend to ask her opinion well when I took the picture and blew it up on my phone my brain went ding ding ding ding ding I got it now ... I made it in glacier blue from I love this yarn because I fell in love with that color

Crochet Hexagon Granny Skirt

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
