My Crochet Journey So Far
I learned to crochet when I was 16. My Great Grandmother was living with us at the time. She was a prolific crocheter. I had broken up with a boyfriend and was moping around the house. My Grandmother couldn't stand it so she sat me down and taught me how to crochet. She taught me how to crochet the granny square and let me tell you that that was the HUGEST granny square afghan that anyone has ever made! I just kept going and going and going! I slowly branched out from making afghans to making sweaters and other things. I don't intend to post patterns because these are not my original designs. I just thought it would be fun to have some sort of record of what I have made and who it went to.

beard hat-October 2011
A friend sent a picture of a hat with a beard and mustache hooked to it. She said her husband would like one. Then my mom commented and said that my dad would like one too. Sooooo, I went online and found a pattern and made this up. What do you think? It is big on me, but it will fit my dad and my friends husband pretty good I think.
This is my friend Karin. I made her a hat and I made her husband one too! I also made my nephew one. He saw my dad's and wanted one himself.
Here's my Dad with his hat on. He wears it when he is out riding his Harley. I think I would be kinda scared if I saw something like this walking into my place of business! LOL!
Here's my nephew Cameron! Isn't that funny? He loves it! Bwahahaha!
Here's the pattern address:BEARD/MUSTACHE
for the beard/mustache. You make your own hat any design you would like.

Hair bands
I was making a headband for my grand daughter. A friend of my daughters saw it and she asked me to make her one. She is 18! So the gray one is for her. I'm not sure how I am going to attach the flower yet. Either sew it on or pin it. My daughter said that she thought sewing it would be better because she was afraid her daughter would unpin it and hurt herself with the pin.

It's a SNUGGIE!!!! January 2011
When I saw a pattern for a crocheted Snuggie I just had to make one! I want to try and sell this. Never have done that before so have to look into it etc. I was quite pleased with the way it turned out. My daughter has been after me to try and sell some of my stuff. Makes me nervous just thinking about it!
UPDATE: I never did try to sell this! I gave it away in a contest on a book blog that I share with a friend. Edifying and Edgy: The Grand Prize winner for the Holiday Break Reading Contest.
