Crochet


Surprised myself. Instead of knitting, I actually crocheted a dishcloth. The story behind it is a friend wants me to show her and her daughter how to crochet, so during my research on the best way to help them learn, I ran across this little dishcloth pattern that I had to try.

Other than that, I've been working some on the bag, knitting and frogging some scrap yarn in an attempt to understand turning a heel when hand knitting, and seaming and ripping the seams on the puzzle slippers. So, what with the frogging and ripping, not much to see there.

Home again

A quick post to explain what I've been doing. Lots of traveling to visit friends and family, and some knitting too. This is a bag (looking at it from the bottom.)
And these are some slippers I'm trying--like working a jigsaw. Will post more details of patterns and yarns later!
