I bought some scrubby yarn on clearance at Hobby Lobby. Since I was so busy with work, I never got to making anything from it. I finally started working on it. First I started trying to crochet dishcloths with it. That was rather frustrating. I just didn’t like how it worked. I decided to start […]

I decided that I wanted to make myself a new hat for this year. I went with a pattern that I know I like from Moogly Blog. It can be found at Free Pattern: All Grown Up Striped Slouch Hat (mooglyblog.com) I chose grey and black, since those are the colors I found when I […]

A friend asked me to make hats, booties and lovies for a set of twins she knows. I started with the hats. I couldn’t find a pattern I liked, so I found some place to start, and from there decided to just wing it. I had to make the crown of both hats at the […]

I’ll come back and add more pictures after. I saw something on Facebook about an Owl Crochet along through Yarnspirations, and thought it looked interesting. The first part of it was posted on Thursday, but I’m not starting on it until today (Saturday). I’ll probably have to finish the first lesson this evening, as my […]

My job got very stressful. I took time off anything that relaxed me except for reading because that would occupy my mind and help with the stress when not at work. Friday 11/12/21 was my last day at the job I took in 2019. They decided to move the job to the plant again and […]

I have quite a few different things I need to be crocheting for this fall. My husband’s cousin is getting married (well, his second cousin), one of his former coworkers is having a baby. I also had 2 weddings on my side of the family earlier this summer. I didn’t get anything done for them, […]

So we have been decorating for the seasons at work. I had seen the pattern for this wreath on Ravelry and decided I wanted to do it. I love how it turned out. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/winne-halloween-wreath It was a fairly easy project. The only part that took awhile was the sleeve for the foam wreath core.

The next project I decided to work on was a request from a former coworker. Since I’ve been just repeating the dishcloths and towel toppers, I thought that it would be nice to take a break and work on something else. My friend/former coworker is a mother of 3, all at 14 months right now. […]

I still have at least 20 towels to go – 10 towels split in 2 to make a total of 20. To give myself a break, I started on the dish cloths. So far, I prefer to crochet them instead of knitting. It took me much less time. But I have more experience in crochet. […]

I made plans to start on the towel toppers last week, but then back to school started. I forgot that there is a lot that I needed to do, like shopping for school supplies. Then all the regular back to school meetings and a fundraiser for Blue Star Mothers, and I didn’t get a chance […]
