Of Yarn and Crocheting

Hello, dearest readers!!! Hope that everyone is having a lovely spring day!

Well, I have not posted my current projects in a long time so here are a few:


I made the blue and pink flowers in about an hour. They are quite easy; you just need to know the double crochet, half double crochet, and triple crochet. Perhaps I will have to post a tutorial soon including one explaining how to knit a headband. Would you like that?

Here is a photo of the yarn I bought to-day called Peaches n' Cream (pink and from Walmart) and Sugar n' Cream (blue and from Michelles). I think that they are by the same company, but am not sure.

May you have a blessed day!

Best Regards from Your Sister in Christ,

  5. They're lovely. :) Yes, please post the tutorial.

    I LOVE working with cotton yarn...I think it's probably my favorite fiber to work with although I've never used wool, mohair or anything like that. Just acrylic, blends, and cotton. :)

  7. Grace,
    Sure you can. I'd have done the same thing if I knew how. By the way, your flowers are lovely.

  8. I can sense your delight with crochet stitch and color. I have crocheted with cotton: primarily dischcloths. I work mostly with wool from our farm. See my blog On Litzen Road Post: Verdant Farm Wool for an example. I really admire those flowers, I purchased a newly printed book on crochet that teaches doing those... but haven't tried it with my wool yet... hope too! Your yarn with the vase is lovely photography... and probably fun to set up.
    By the way, the give away items for Grace were very special and everyone smelled those little pillows... and read your nice letter.

  9. I really like the teal one! I would love to learn how to crochet, but don't have a teacher. I have a book, but I don't understand it. I'm glad you can crochet so beautifully. I really like doilies too. Well, talk to you later! Feel free to visit my blog, Learning Life's Lessons. God Bless!
