Even tho my mental state is somewhat wonky these past weeks, I am still making things. I have found crochet to be a very relaxing medium, and since we have no winter clothes to speak of (and will undoubtedly need them in our new habitat), I have been making warm fuzzy cuddly things.
I finally finished this scarf. I showed the start of it a while ago. I thought it would be longer, but one of the skeins ran out so I just ended it there. I'm happy enough with the length: it keeps my neck covered. And it's so soft. No more wool scarves for this girl!
This is a little hard to reconcile with the climate here in Singapore. Consequently, it looks totally dopey to me. But it is so soft and warm that I know I will overcome feeling silly and will wear it.
Or maybe I'll just enjoy feeling silly.
Actually, this hood looked so great on my daughter that I decided to make one for her, using white fuzzy yarn where I used blue for mine. I got started, but then I had to stop for a while because I was having a sore arm. That's the first time that's ever happened to me. Crocheting too much, I guess.
So, this is Spring Break Week, as I mentioned, and my daughter and I have planned the week out. I don't think I'll find any time to sneak into my studio, but who knows? She is planning on a sleepover tomorrow, so that might be my day. I'm thinking that the current quilt is going to be filed away for a time. I have all these great ideas of things I want to sew, and the UFO is just making me feel guilty. Maybe I'll finish that one, maybe not. But for now, I gotta follow my creative impulses. Soon enough the whole studio will need to get packed...yipes!
You look GR8 with this hood on!
ReplyDeleteI used to wear those hood my mother crocheted when I was in elementary school. Yours looks much prettier tho. Back then, there weren't so much cute yarns, maybe. But I might have looked prettier! I was much younger back then......
Very cute indeed! Of course it looks good on Glory - everything seems to! I want to see a picture of the white one on her.
ReplyDeleteI am the kind of hombre who enjoys to seek unprecedented things. Presently I am making my private pv panels. I'm making it all alone without the aid of my men. I'm utilizing the net as the only way to acheive this. I stumbled upon a truly brilliant site which explains how to make pv panels and wind generators. The website explains all the steps needed for solar panel construction.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure about how precise the data given there iz. If some guys over here who had xp with these things can have a see and give your feedback in the thread it would be grand and I'd extremely appreciate it, because I really take an interest in solar panel construction.
Thanks for reading this. You people are the best.
