My first project post!!!!
So lately, it's been damn near impossible to pry the crochet hook out of my hand.
I'm a knitter first...but hoo, boy!
Crochet does wonders for that very Aries need for instant gratification.
And it turns out that I don't suck at it - who knew?
This past weekend, I finished the 88-square floral blanket for my mom, and then I whipped up an Alpaca scarf for my friend Jessica who's moving to NYC - shell stitch with bobble fringe, and hopefully soon I'll get a picture of her wearing it.
AND I went out over the weekend too!
Tonight, I finished the squares for the second panel of the hippie bag I'm making.
I started out making the 'Granny's No Square' bag from "Happy Hooker", but this soon adopted a mind of its own.
I really like that about crochet, actually.
It's so easy to veer off in a completely different direction - perfect for that Aries superiority thing.
What, a book written by an expert contains more knowledge/skill/creativity than I posess?
Impossible!
I've included a shot of the one finished side of the bag, and the kitty, Flip Flop, enjoying my mom's blanket.
Nighty night!

Looks like he enjoys the blanket..thanks for stopping by..I'm a Libra if that helps...LOL. If you stop by my blog often as you read and get to know me..you will see I am entirely Librs through and through..sometimes its a pain to be a Libra. Somedays especially when it comes to being intuitive its a blessing. Odd little fact I would share with you is..my BF is a Capricorn..LOL..and it works great.
Yes, that kitty is loving his(!) blanket! :) Looks a lot like my kitty.
