I have been crocheting a lot lately mostly because people ask me for stuff and I’m stressed. Crocheting takes me to a different place. One of the hardest things when crocheting for others is working with the colors they pick. I LOVE bright and fun colors. They are cheerful. But when someone says can you make me this and make it in colors I don’t necessarily love it is a bit harder for me. However, I do it because I know that not everyone is like me and loves those brighter colors. If the colors they pick make them happy that is what I work with.
Here are a few of my projects:
Bibs for a sweet one year old:
Boxes for a variety of people:
Scarves:
Coasters:
Makeup pads and bag:
Washcloths / Dishcloths:
These projects have been done over weeks of work. Some of them will be gifts, some have already been claimed and taken, some I sold – mostly though, they were made with care and helped me destress. All I can hope is when I give them to the people who end up with them – they appreciate the work and care that went into making them. The next project – well there are so many to choose from. My biggest question – when is the next yarn sale?
