Headband anyone?

Headband
Made this in a little over a half hour with the remnant of a skein of yarn. What do you think? Do you like it? Hate it? Not the most flattering picture, but it was seriously the best quick pic I could get. You can find the pattern here

New product

Over break I did get a chance to crochet like I wanted to. Found a great pattern for headband/ear warmers. They look like this:

Ear warmer/Headband
If you want one or know anyone else who does, let me know.
I would charge $12. You'll find that's a very competitive price. Get one before winters over!

My apologies

I just want to apologize for my crappy remix and lack of creativity through this whole thing. Should have chosen stronger items. But should probably own those items too. Oh well. Next time around. I've also had a lot going on in my life and not a lot of time to focus. Just found out that my car needs about $1200 in repairs. Like I mentioned before, just when it seems like you're finally getting things figured out and getting on top of stuff, things really go wrong. I mean, it's not really that bad. Just financially. It's no fun. We're all in good health, we have a few christmas presents, we always have enough food and Derek is finally finished with his finals! I get a whole 3 weeks!

Obviously I didn't try too hard yesterday. We've just been hanging out at home a lot.

Being put to use

I made this hat for baby Quincy for Cara's baby shower and since she was born 2 days ago she can now wear it.

Baby Quincy in the hat I made her

I didn't get a picture of it before I gave it to her, but now you get a picture of a cute baby in a cute hat.

Crochet Glory!

I've been looking to make myself a hat. This is what I made:

Side view

I also made another one in a different color that I used Derek to model.
Made this-Side View
I am so pleased with the result! If you or anyone you know is interested in one, let me know. Christmas is coming up. They'd make good gifts.

I can also make baby hats, afghans, etc.

Charlotte at Bella Italia

Charlotte and I
Bella Italia is amazing! I always try and make it a point to go when I'm in town. And it's always incredible! And it's always fun to go with Charlotte because she introduced me to it Valentine's Day 2007 or so. We had no boyfriends, no dates, so we went out with each other. And it's one of the best Valentine's days of my life.

This is actually a screen shot from a video I took. And I didn't notice it until I was showing Derek all the pictures and things and he's the one who pointed it out.

Updates!



This is from my mom's camera when she visited in August. I'm just getting these pictures up now! So sorry!



I've been crocheting a lot! And giving them as presents. A lot of baby showers. The blanket is for my sister's new baby. I'm so proud of it! The nicest thing I've ever made yet. She doesn't look at my blog, so I'm safe until I see her in 2 weeks!



Food! For some reason whenever I put text into Picasa it doesn't save it in the collage. So we got a whole bunch of tomatoes from Mom and Dad's garden while they were out of town for 2 weeks, so I was able to make Bruschetta (the sourdough I got from my visiting teacher who works at Great Harvest. Thanks!) and then pizza the next night. Both were delicious! I've never made anything as fancy as Bruschetta before. And I'm excited about the results.

Yay for updates!
