you remember yesterday how i told you that i wanted to share my latest project? well, i've really been having fun with it, but i do realize that it probably makes me seem like such a granny to get so much joy and satisfaction from crocheting. i mean, seriously, my dad called last saturday and asked what i was doing. when i told his i was crocheting, he said, "CROCHETING?!?!?" and laughed. i guess it is kind of funny because the stereotypical crocheter (is that even a word?) is double my age or more. but what can i say? i like it. be that as it may, here's what i've been crocheting...
those bottles are old, not just knock-offs! the house where chris' grandpa grew up is, sadly, caving in, but we walked down to it a few weekends ago and i got a few old bottles from the parts that didn't threaten to collapse and take me along with them. i don't know that i'll use all three, but i like having one out though for a flower vase! and speaking of flowers, chris came in on tuesday afternoon after a hike through the woods with a handful of flowers! now i feel bad about saying such nasty things about him. i kid!
i love those@

OMG...teach me how!!! Seriously, share...now!
ReplyDeleteWhat CaL said! Or at least share links to a decent how-to blog.
ReplyDeleteThose are stunning and I'm very jealous.
cal, asheyna, i regret to inform you, i don't have any links! i don't know how to read crochet patterns, so i just kind of figured a stitch out on my own, but it's actually really simple, and i'm a total novice at crocheting!
ReplyDeleteawesome!!! i think your granny-ness is your sexiest quality ;) no wait, that's your animal loving!
ReplyDeleteit's a shame my momma is an excellent crochet-er (is that a word?!) i should have learned. lol

such a unique idea! i love it and it's pretty. not granny-ish at all :p
ReplyDeleteNarcissus flowers my favorite!!!! I love the bottle dresses :)
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful. I love the color too. So soft and delicate.
ReplyDeleteOh funny! I was telling my dad about a recent crochet/knitting date I had with my friend, and he just kept making nursing home jokes of various sorts. Dads don't get it!
ReplyDeleteI was delighted with his blog. I will return often.
