I got a request from my godson to make a striped red/black/white hat with a pompom on top and on the side braids.
It took me about a week to complete because of this
I really don't change colors so often because of the weaving that has to be done afterward. I even decided on a double crochet instead of a single crochet so it would be about 1/2 the rows to switch. But the outcome was worth it (even though I was injured--ha ha ha).
My mannequin also got a "head" and some hair--ha ha ha.
Thank you for visiting my blog! This a place where I like to share my crafty projects. I am rarely up-to-date on my scrapbooking and it usually takes me a while to finish crochet projects... I've been collecting supplies since 2002...My goal is to merge older supplies with newer supplies to create pages that I love.

Happy Birthday to my BESTIES!!
It took me years to find, but I am very lucky to have found the best friends a girl could have. They accept my dorkiness--ha ha ha. I find it kinda cool that they even share the same birthday.
Happy Birthday Liz and Meredith!!!
Liz & I at a Wedding.
Meredith & I at a SuperBowl Party.
Here Liz & I are at the Renegade Fair this past summer having fun!

Getting Cozy with Coffee
I know I have mentioned it before, but I am going to say it again. Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick yarn is my favorite!!
My latest creation is this Coffee Cup Cozy.
It looks a little big on this "Tall" cup, but I know I usually have a "Grande" or "Venti".
Unfortunately, it kinda clashes with the Red Holiday cups.
I have had a few attempts at crocheting a coffee cozy for sometime. Here is a failed attempt
Not only was the flower way too big but the sleeve was too big as well.
mmmm.....Starbucks "season" :D
