YOU"VE GOT TOO MUCH TIME WHEN.....

I have so many UFO's that I really didn't need to start another project. But that has never stopped me before, so why now ? I got this idea to make something that would show how strong and tough the women are now. Yet we don't have to look like a guy to be strong, we can still be pretty and be strong inside. I hope I am making some sort of sense. Anyhow, this is what I came up with. I crocheted over some rocks. Hence the pretty outside but very strong on the inside. I also decided one would go to my eye surgeon to use as a paperweight and also the explanation of why it was made like this. I just thought y'all might like to see what nutty things I think up. I have several more rocks to stitch over. I'll let you see them when finished. Enjoy

so saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadddddddd

The Hexagon Granny Cardigan Finished

Another little cardigan finished. Just thought I´d share a photo of the finished product. Please visit my last post if you want to find the pattern for it. I did alter the pattern a bit and put a few rows down the back to make it wider without making the sleeves wider. This was a bit of a bother and disformed it a little until I crocheted the edging. I put 4 rows of edging and no collar to make up for the adjusted back. Anyhow it all worked out in the end and I am pleased. Also a very quick project just 4 or 5 hours worth of work!

My personal cactus!

I really like all kind of cactus. But I have two great problems. First of all I haven't the Green thumb so I can make dead all kind of plants (...).

The second is Kitty, my sweet cat. She likes to play with plants, expecially to take off the grass from the vase.

So I thought to make my cactus with crochet. No water, no special cares, no grass!

Buongiorno!

Hello everyone, my name is Josephine and I live in the South of Italy, in wonderful and sunny Puglia. I work crochet since I was a child - my granny taught to me - but I also like knitting, in completely relax.

During the last months I have worked on a pair of blanket: I didn't like much the wool colour - especially the green one - but through simple granny's squares and hexagons I think that they have reached a result quite happy! This one seems to be a green carpet with flowers, don't you think so?

PS: Thank you Kathy Ann for let me share with you my passion!
