Project Five

Number FOUUURRRRR!!!

Now i recently discovered that there is this whole other world to crochet that I never new about. Ithought to myself, "Hey!! blankets, scarves, socks Oh MY!!!" but THEEENNNN i found amigurumi. It's wonderful. I decided to make a couple of hello kitty dolls from the pattern provided by RoboTrish.com (http://robotrish.com/post/644588884/free-amigurumi-hello-kitty-pattern) I customized mine a little bit, but that's what Crochet is all about to me, customization. The one on the right was my first try, I haven't added the suspenders or the eyes yet, but it'll happen soon, i keep getting sidetracked by so many other wonderful patterns. For the one on the left i decided to go a little more girly and add a skirt, it took me a couple tries to figure out, but i did and i feel really proud of myself for that tiny little skirt.

Project number Three.

This one is for my grandma. I wanted to make her something big and beautiful. Have you ever run out of yarn when you only needed enough for one more square? That's happened to me several times with this one.

Project Number Two.

I decided it would be a great idea to crochet presents for Christmas, that way i can personalize it a lot more than anything store bought. My grandma has an orange zig zag crochet afghan that her mother had made her so she said to me,"Wendie, make one for your dad, he keeps trying to steal mine."

My First Project.

Ive decided to start this little tiny blog to display my new favorite hobby [or whatever else]!!!! Crochet!!! Yay!!!
This was my first attempt to crochet anything. It Took me a little while to get a hang of and the shape of the blanket is a little wonky but its soft and comfy.
