Elsie kindly asked if I might contribute to her “Tricks and Treats” guest-blogging series on her site, and of course I jumped at the chance to do anything having to do with that little lady!
Check out TWO tutorials I created over at her blog! Sorry I posted it so late here. I’ve been out all day!
At first I wanted to make Mummy Mitts… but then I thought it might be too complicated for crochet beginners, so then I wrote up a Daisy Headband project, and then I couldn’t decide between the two, so I sent both to Emma, and both got posted so you get double the fun! π
Here are two extra mummyriffic photos:
The flower head band looks like this and is SUPER EASY to make! I have actually been wearing it a lot, but I didn’t want to post any photos until the tutorial went up!
Instead of doing anything Halloweeny today, my cousin, his bestie, Hairy, and I drove to Napa Valley to go sparkling wine tasting at Domaine Carneros and to eat dinner at Ubuntu, with a spontaneous stop at Chandon. It was a pretty delicious and decadent day. Hairy and I were going to see Saw 3D, and the boys were going to go clubbing, but everyone ended up kinda sleepy and there wasn’t a late enough movie for us to catch. Oh wells!
the tutorials were super easy to follow and i managed to make both items! i’ve never crotched before, so this was a first. now i’m excited for your book to arrive in my post box π
OH my gosh! That is so cool!!!!!! I would love to see pics of your of your finished items!
Thank you so much for the patterns! I can’t wait to try them. I also pre ordered your book and I see it was shipped yesterday! I can’t wait to get it!!!
