Crochet Projects

Sock-cess!!

After scour­ing the inter­net for the PERFECT sock pat­tern, adding a TON of them to my Rav­elry queue, and attempt­ing 90% of them, I have finally expe­ri­enced the suc­cess and JOY that comes with mak­ing a pair of socks!
That’s right -

My first pair of handmade socks!

I cro­cheted my socks, using this pat­tern.
I’ve just ordered more […]

Everything old is new again!

So, I decided to peruse an old Cro­chet World mag­a­zine that’s been col­lect­ing dust in my pattern stash.

I haven’t read the pat­tern yet, but it’s from Octo­ber 1987. I really like the girl’s Vest on the front cover. It looks to be made side-to-side, with a rib­bing waist­band added afterward.

Now, as a mem­ber of […]

I got a peaceful, easy feelin’…

For the past few weeks, it’s felt like every­thing I touch, relat­ing to yarn, was turn­ing to carp!

I went to Hobby Lobby the other day, bound and deter­mined to make some­thing for myself!
I think I was hit with severe sticker shock! I can’t remem­ber the last time I had gone ‘gen­eral’ yarn shop­ping.
6 skeins of […]

Chick –a — go!

I’ve been work­ing on this pat­tern (Rav­elry link) for a few days now, and it’s going well.
I haven’t had any huge frog­gings to deal with, which is always nice.

This is the largest item I’ve ever made!

I’ve fin­ished the first three sec­tions — right front, back, and left front.
Now I’m work­ing all three pieces together, that make […]

Getting back into it…

Whew, I didn’t real­ize it had been over a month since my last entry!

I’ll try to catch everyone up:

The end of last month, I caught the flu.  DH was also off of work (he’s a school teacher, and it was fall break).
It almost always takes me a while to get back into the swing after a break, […]

Captain, I seem to see signs of life here!

Been hit­ting Star Trek reruns pretty hard lately, but, alas I’m here.
AND, I have hook in hand!

I’ve been cro­chet­ing quite a bit lately. I made a pair of slip­pers for myself, and the three kid­dies, some scarves for friends (as a means to eat up some stash, too!), and a few pair of fin­ger­less gloves […]

On the Watch Wednesday!

I’m a day late, but bet­ter late, than never, right -?

Well, any­way, we read the arti­cle about the Monarch but­ter­fly in the Novem­ber Awake!  It’s always inter­est­ing the learn about lit­tle known details about ani­mals and things that we, oth­er­wise, take for granted.

We’re going to save this arti­cle to use in the spring, when we […]

WW!">WW!

Here we are: On The Watch Wednesday #2!

Today, we’re going to dis­cuss “What we learn from Jesus about the Hope for the Dead”

This arti­cle will be of great use out in the min­istry, plus, it gives the girls the chance to learn my favorite scrip­ture, John 5:28,29!

We had a great study — the girls are going to […]

WW!">It’s WW!

I’m so excited to kick off the first official WW!

After receiv­ing my first com­ment to the post about Watch­tower Wednes­day, I real­ized (QUICKLY) that that may be too restric­tive.  To only use Watch­tower mag­a­zines?  When the Awake! mag­a­zine is extremely resource­ful, too!  AND… the awe­some pub­li­ca­tions that are at our disposal…

So, with ALL that being said, […]

On the Watch Wednesdays!

Ok, so I’m look­ing for a bit of a ‘pick-me-up’.

I’m a cro­cheter, and I’ve seen TONS of blogs that have things to get oth­ers involved:

Dish­cloth Tues­day, Filet Fri­days, Scarf Sunday, etc.

What I’m propos­ing — every Wednes­day, we will include one Watch­tower Arti­cle in our Lesson.

This is not the same as the Sun­day study arti­cle, just a […]
