I hope you are all as happy to know as I am that my positivety (<---- apparently I made up this word as spell checker has not a clue what I am trying to say....) HAS RETURNED!!!!! Right now Pandora is playing a song with the words "My dream is to fly over the rainbow" HA! How appropriate. I know that is what most of us want, I also know that the drive required is difficult for some to grasp. (ME) =)
Although I don't have a plethora of things to share with you this week, I do have the finished red bag (which is on etsy now and already got a favorite this week!), I also have pics of another project I started for a shawl, AND I found the little hat I was talking about a few weeks ago. The hat is an original creation, no pattern, just an idea turned real. I still wonder if I should add a headband or just have bobby pins with it. I also wonder if I could make another. I wish I had made several when I made this one... It is funny, at the time I made that and the snowman for mom I was crocheting a lot and I had a friend that would sit and crochet, too. I don't know if having the friend helped me be more creative or just crocheting a lot. It was probably a combo. Lately most of my attempts at originality have not come to fruition as I have been unhappy with all of them.
I still hope I can show you all the little snowman I made here soon. Going to mom's for my b-day tomorrow, so I will bug her to try and find it, but she just moved a month or so ago, so I can't promise anything. Hopefully I can give you photos of it for x-mas this next Friday! I have decided, for the foreseeable future, Friday will be my posting day. That way I will put out a minimum of 4 posts a month. I think that is enough to keep myself and others interested. I just have to come up with something interesting to post every week.... I think it is a good goal, though. It Will hopefully help keep my creativity and motivation up.
I just discovered arm knitting, and it looks like it might be right up my alley, cause it is quick! I have been wanting to make some cowls and I saw a tutorial on just that. I just gotta brush up on those knitting skills, which is what I want to do, anyway. I really want to get good at knitting, I just keep on putting it off. Okay, one more thing before I go, as this is getting really LONG! I am going to start a pair of Mrs. Mcawber's Limpet Mitts this week as well. I love her blog and her work and I am late in starting, but better late than never! Anyone and everyone should check out her awesome blog, it puts mine to shame! I also absolutely love Snowcathcer because her writing and photographs are moving and inspirational! I may have plugged them before, and I probably will again, but these ladies deserve it! Shout out, ladies!! ~MUCH LOVE~
