Love it.

So I am back, Finally. I havn't been working on hats too much, I did a few infinaty scarves, which i will get pictures up in a little bit. I have a 'mesh' shopping bag partly done and have started some 4 leaf clover looking granny blocks, which i plan to do in a variaty of greens to male an afagan. I choose to use Vanna's choice yarns for this because they had the biggest variaty of greens at the local Hobby Lobby, Here is a picture of my first shamrock, which was supper easy once i realized the patternwhas wrote using US and UK instructions combined...

I have been away from my computer.

I have not been able to post because of a mess up with my internet bill being paid to another account got me turned off, and I figured since I was at the Library today I would check in.  I have been crocheting, i have done up a curly scarf to match the last hat, a great purple hat with spiraling popcorns and a button cuff (super cool) and I had a etra long scarf (if you know me you know how I love my long scarfs) , like so long it drags the grouns if i dont have it wrapped.  So hopefully soon The whole internet thing will be cleared up and I can go back to surfing the web and adding more stuff here.

Hat 7 anothe beanie


Just another single crochet beanie. I was gonna put a brim on in but I felt like it looked a little to cat in the hat with the self striping pink cotton yarn.  I think I had to rip parts of this out 4 times, not so much fun, but it is a pretty pink although you cant seeot in these pictures.

Pumpkin Head (hat 6)

I searched and searched the web to find a cute adult sized pumpkin hat and I couldnt find one thet I thought I would actually wear on public so I came up with my own pattern.  I absolutly loved, loved, LOVED this hat.  I made the pumpkin 'ridges' using the popcorn stitch, and I just winged it for the pumpkin, and watched a you-tube video to get the basics of the curly cue.  Really it was alot of fun.  I think I will sit down with the hat and write up the pattern and put it up on here.


hat 5, my Bella hat


This is my Bells Sawn hat, like the one she wore at the LaPush beach in Twilight.  All in all this was a quick easy crochet. it is also the hat my bad great Dane stretched all out, the photo is post dog attack and the hat was still damp, therefor old. I got this pattern form http://lilustudios.blogspot.com/2010/12/twilight-inspiration-bellas-hat-crochet.html , there are like a million patterns for this hat out there, I liked this website most.  On another not I wore this hat to the Dr. office the other day and one of the reception ladies really liked it, and all crafters like to get compliments on our handywork :)

GRRRRRR BAD DOG!!!

GRRRRRR!  I have a very very bad great dane free to good home!  Yesterday afternoon, I left my dining room to fing my great dane coming out of the living room carrying the hat I just finished a little bit ago (hat 6, a very cute orange pumpkin hat.)  He wouldnt drop it, wouldnt open his mouth, wouldnt let me pry his mouth open.  I swatted his nose and yelled at him telling him he is a bad dog (the bad dog thing hurts his feeling, I think) and then he gave up his prize.  Upon instpection i found no damage, just a small damp spot so I took it to the kitchen and gave it a good spray with fabreeze just to be safe.  From there I head into the living room and instantly sopt hat 5, my Bella Swan hat, on the floor and greatly mis-shapen. It looked as if he had his paws in one side of it while he pulled on the other siode with his teeth, and it was very wet, very gross. I washed it up in the sink and coaxed it back into shape, which suprised me that it wasnt ruined.  SO tomorrow I will post pictures and info about the hats, and I plan to make my 1 year old nephew a smaller version of a pumpkin hat because he seemed to be interested in mine today.

Hat 4


This is My Lovie in his hat I made for him.  All done in single crochet, to give it a nice tight frrling since that is what he requested.  The yarn is black heather by Vanna's Choice. It was a very nice quick crochet, I think I will do more like this in different colors with some appliques... I am seeing owl eyes, and kitty ears :)
