Crochet Ideas

So, I’ve been searching for various Halloween inspired crochet patterns, because it’s that time of the year. And I found these!

They are so cute that I can’t stand it! Just crochet around some wire coat hangers and see where it goes!!

I know I haven’t been on here in a while and I apologize to all of ya’ll that actually follow my crazy crap. I’ve had a rough little while, had a bad hit while I was already in a downswing, so I’m feeling worse that I have in a very long time. I am crafting until my fingers bleed just to get my mind off of things. I finished a scarf, and started two more. Scarves are easy, I don’t have to think about them while I’m making them.

I had been working on this one since New Years. It’s the first thing I ever knit, and I just went and went until I ran out of yarn. It turned out pretty good.

Mom got me some fancy hard-to-work-with yarn. So I decided to knit a scarf. I have pulled this darn thing out twice to get the right size, but I think I’m finally happy with it.

I hope I have enough yarn to finish this one. The pattern is one of my own design, and I rather like it. I’ve got four 4 balls of this yarn, and I hope it’s enough to finish this thing!

Thanks to everyone who watches my posts and comments. It always makes me feel better to get an encouraging thought when I’m feeling horrible.

Have You Seen This Doily Pattern?

Babycakes Creates

***Update***Found it!

Original post:

Because it’s awesome. 🙂

This is the first doily that I ever made – can you tell? Actually, there was an earlier version that was unceremoniously destroyed after I couldn’t even frog it to save the thread. Hey, if you’re going to make a mistake, make it a good one.

Although this doily made it to completion, I haven’t been able to find the original pattern source. I know that it was free, and available online, but that’s where the trail goes cold. It would be great to be able to link it up to its source on Ravelry. Is it one that you recognize? If so, drop me a line.

In the meantime, I’m still working on bigger and better thread projects…

Small Steps…

I am so excited today is here!  All the hard work making tons of crochet projects for my display at Alpine Originals for the Art Walk this evening… And now I  get to show it all off!  I couldn’t resist last night making a couple new items though!!!  I thought I would make one more pair of Skimmer Slippers using the pattern I bought a couple of years ago over at hookcandy.com… The pair I made a few days ago already had sold and I thought it would be nice to make one more pair for the Art Walk…

.

I couldn’t resist the temptation of something new… I had been talking to my Sister-In-Law Laura a couple of weeks ago about the pattern and we were saying how much we both love making these slippers,,, She then told me she had also purchased the children’s pattern and…

Another pretty pattern!

Tunisian Pebble Crochet! It would make a gorgeous pillow cover, or a rug. This pattern is for a dishcloth, which it would also be good for.

Pattern is HERE!

Gorgeous Pattern!

I came across this awesome pattern today. I must make one of these. That pattern would be pretty on a slouchy hat.

Get the pattern for it HERE!

Thought for the Day #2

The emotion of the day is nerve-wracked. I hate last minute plans. They are murder on my anxiety. To keep from going crazy I try and make plans 3-4 days in advance. At least 24 hours.Now I’m going to spend all day on edge, not knowing if it’s ok for me to sit here and chill out in my pjs or if I should go get dressed and get a shower.

To ease my brain, I’m just going to act like I had never thought there were going to be plans in the first place. In other words, play some Neverwinter and plan some of my crafty things.

I would love to make one of these. But it’s in my long term plans.

What’s this? Is that Tom Baker’s scarf from Dr Who? Why yes! Yes it is! And that is on my table for my next really large fiber project. I just started to learn to knit, and I’ve been crocheting for a little over a year. I think a project so big, while it would take me forever, it would get me used to changing colors and learning the basic knit stitch. Aside from that, I would have an awesome point on my geek card.

Thought of the day – Aura migraines suck.
