Mom and I were in the States a couple of months ago, and I was visiting with my friend Lur who is a crochet genius. I watched her crochet for a while, and tried to remember just what was so hard about crocheting. So...yes. I got a hook and some yarn at a craft store, only this time I *scuffs foot* wasn't exactly the most optimistic about how my projects might turn out. Thankfully, I saw that now I could follow a pattern and learn new stitches just fine! My projects still might look like a 10 year old did them, but I'm loving it all the same! Here are just a few stuff I've done lately:
 |
| A doggie\monster hat |
 |
| Simple beanie with scalloped edges |
 |
| I love hats! This is my favorite because it's a beret, and it's mesh, so it's not bulky. |
 |
| Queen Ann's Lace scarf |
 |
| :') A lil hippo. I may or may not talk to it... |
Whenever I'm able to get supplies easily I want to learn to knit as well, along with getting good enough at crochet to hopefully sell some stuff here and there.

I wanted to check in with y'all and see if you have any ideas of what more I should do with this lil ol' blog! Is there anything you want to know about? Should I do vlogs more often? What should they be about?
Also, I want to do a giveaway, but since I don't have anything to actually give away at the present, what do y'all think about a blog design giveaway? I am by no means a pro, or even super good at it, but I love making headers, and makin' stuff look pretty! It could be your choice of whether you'd like just a header, or a redo of your whole blog.
Tell me what y'all think!

happy weekend!

I looOOoove that scarf. And the hippo! *dies of cute overload* And all of the hats! And you! But not in that order. ;) You're doing great with all the "crot-chet-ing"! Love you! <3
ReplyDeleteSince I am so tech challenged a blog header would be a great win. That hippo is adorable.
ReplyDeleteOh my gawd that first hat is adorable and those are all the hip hop rage right now. Your so talented. I couldn't do it. I am taking sewing lessons because a button is a sad victim in my house. I try but I am not a pro. I am super creative just not with sewing so it ticks me off. That's why I decided to take the challenge. I can't wait to see your other creations.
ReplyDeleteYou. Are. Amazing Linz! :D I love the Beret... and the hippo... everything! :) You should definitely sell some stuff: you have a ready customer! hehe! :)
ReplyDelete*thinks* A blog redo?! Yes, please! That would be a really cool giveaway! :) Love you!
xoxo
i learned how to crochet when i was like 12, but i sucked at it. so i quit and now wouldn't have the slightest clue how to do it.
ReplyDeleteyou should do a header/button giveaway. i know a lot of blogs try to coordinate their header and button and a lot of people don't know how to make them! i've been thinking about doing the same kind of giveaway!
good luck and keep up the good work crocheting! ha!
love,
