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.

October 2013-Doll Clothes

I'm making my grand daughters doll clothes for Christmas. I bought them each an 18 inch doll and refused to buy the clothes for them! So now I am making them. This is the first attempt:


This is very BRIGHT! And I used a bit bigger yarn than the pattern called for. Hopefully it will fit the doll. I haven't taken the dolls out to try on the dress. I'm hoping to make each doll 3 outfits. We will see how much time I have.

Here's the next one I made:



Here's the pattern book I'm using:

I didn't make the hat, shoes or purse. I think they would just get lost and be a waste of time.
