Summer has been great but I have neglected my blog and haven't finished many crochet projects either. Wah wah...
Anyway. I have been working on a blanket that I found the pattern for on
etsy.com. It looks so pretty on there and in theory the flowers shouldn't be that hard. I started the blanket and I must have picked a bad kind of yarn that kind of fell apart so I had to start over with some Sugar and Cream 100% cotton yarn and it has made a big difference. It still bothers my hands more than regular crochet but hopefully it will be done soon.
One project I did finish this summer was a caterpillar from Stacy Trock's
Cutey Crawlies he was super easy and pretty quick. I made him for my nephew.
I also found a really cute bee pattern from
Amigurumi Patterns.net. I had to make him but did change up the colors a bit and embroidered eyes in order to give it to my hairdresser's daughter.
I also participated in
Freshstitches.com's dragon crochet along. Love the community of doing that and Stacy Trock is awesome about helping you along the way.
I made mine using a very girly variegated yarn. It was one of the most fun ones I have done.
She is really much cuter in person. I need to come up with her a name...
Goodbye summer!
