Yikes. Aches, ,pains, hard of hearing, unable to carry things for long distances, etc etc. Is this a complaint? Probably. I wanted to share my latest things I have crocheted for Christmas gifts. The above is three cardigans I made for my dil and granddaughters. I am hoping they will have their photos taken in them. I think they will be so great! Very simple. The basic pattern is from an old 1973 McCall's Crochet Treasury book and I changed it a bit to update it. The yarn is #3 weight yarn and it was hard for me to hold on to it, however, I persevered. Ta-da.
It is raining today...the kind of rain that we used to love to play in when we were kids...wet, lots of it, big puddles. So much fun. I loved walking through it today. Thank you Mother God and Father God for the rain. I love it as I love You!
Here is another work of crochet: It is from the 100 Hats book and it is a guy's cap. I kind of like it. I made them for my sons and grandsons. They are warm. I also made the felted handbag below. My friend lined it and I gave it to her. It was fun to make and used up a wool yarn the color of which I didn't know what to do with....terrible grammar, but you get the idea, I think.
I have been doing a lot of farmville on FB. It is kind of neat to socialize with people while I am working on the "ole' farm." I am in touch with my friend Patricia, friend of 60 years! And it is a relaxing way of spending a little time socializing. I also crochet while I am on farmville. Sometimes it is slow that I crochet a whole scarf. Hm. Internet, gotta love it. I don't have much else to write except I pray every day for my son Shawn, Brendan and his family, Kevin and Jenn, and Timothy and Julie. I love them. I hope they know it. Mistakes be darned. I have always loved them!! He who is without sin may cast the first stone..... and that stuff. Blessed Be!!
