How exciting my first post! umm...uhh...hmmm... Well where do I start? I crochet. This is my adventure through the wild and wonderful world of yarn... oh yarn.. how I love you.
I feel I have an unhealthy addiction to crocheting. If I don't complete a project I get the shakes... Must...complete....project *eyes glaze over* I get into this groove and everything else goes black, my hands are in a rhythm and my arms go on auto mode.
This is one of the hats I completed yesterday. It was made with Loops & Threads Charisma Yarn in Dark Green. I used an N hook and made a chain until it wrapped nicely around my head. I double crocheted to build it up, then dec for a few rows and finished with half double crochet with dec.
The bow is just a chain of 16, built up, tied in the middle and stitched to the hat. It fits nicely!
I got the pattern for this one off of ravelry. Its called the Durango Hat. It consists of double crochet in the round with front post double crochet to make the ribbing. I added about 5 rows of grey (the pattern only calls for 3) because it was still a bit short. I lengthened it so it fits nicely over the ears and on the forehead. I love buttons... I want to put them on everything.
Well that is everything for today. I hopefully will finish some more fingerless gloves tonight :D
