Halter Heaven

Why can I not get my mind off these halter tops!!!!! I made the first as a test. I knew that I could make it but truth is everything isn't fun to create. In a week's time I had made 3! I have been wearing them every where and people just love them. I had to revamp them a little till now I have a product I am 100% happy with.

The problem now seems to be that is all I want to make lol. I need to get back into grandbaby mode so I can finish her items before she gets here. I need some baby motivation because right now I just keep thinking about all the pretty colors I can make the halter tops in.

I think I am going to try making another one using a thin baby yarn and see how that works out. I am a little worried that the thinner yarn will not be able to hold the boobages (breast) up as well as the other yarn. This will be an interesting experiment!

Also, my crafty friends in my facebook group have challenged me to make a skirt so I think I will give that a try as well. See women's clothing is so exciting right now it is hard to get back into baby mode!

You crafty people pray for me to get it together. Until next time you all stay crafty and I am going to try to bering some order to my chaotic crochet.

Something for me

Hello crafty friends! Well, I ran out of yarn while making my granddaughters blanket, total bummer there. (I really need a yarn fairy that just brings me yarn when I need it ha ha ha). Of course I decided to make her blanket with "I love this yarn" which is only sold at Hobby Lobby. The closest Hobby Lobby is on the other side of town 30 minutes away! I just haven't been in the mood to battle my wheelchair and handicap to make the trip. Today, I decide to try and make a top I saw someone in one of my crochet groups make. It was just so cute! I gathered together some of my scrap yarn ( colors I thought would work well together) and gave it a whirl! I couldn't be more happy with the results! Matter of fact I have the top on right now. You all will be the first to see it ( provided like me you are up in the middle of the night). I love making and wearing the top so much I sent my honey straight to the store to get more yarn so I could make another and I am halfway done with it! Tell me what you think. I am just so enthused with myself right now. It's one in the morning so I am going to try to get some rest. I can't wait to share the next done with you. Until then click your hooks three times and repeat there's no place like yarn. It won't take you anywhere but it may relax your nerves and heck it's fun to say.

Happy Easter

Hello friends! Happy Easter! I thought I would stop by and give you all a sneak peek at what I have been working on. This is a special blanket I am working on for my granddaughter. I cannot wait to finish it. I am thinking the trim should be ruffles, ribbons, and tassels. What can be more girly than that? Still I am open for any suggestions if you all have any. I am off to prepare for family dinner tonight. I wanted to stop in and wish you all a happy holiday. Until next time .  . . be crafty!
