crochet potholder
October 22nd, 2010
Since I crocheted over a stone a while back I’ve been working on little crochet projects here and there. It’s nice to have a little project to work on for no other reason than it’s enjoyable to do. Crochet can be so odd and sculptural, like this potholder: it looked like some leggy sea creature when I was working on it and then with the last row it suddenly came together and became a beautiful flower with folded petals. (Here is the ravelry link if your interested in the specs)
I’m not sure if these projects will be gifts or not, but the baby seems to think we’re keeping this one. Crochet can get very crazy, very quickly and this very apparent with potholders for some reason, but these bears are restrained enough to be just the right amount of cute.
Though I failed horriblly at facebook, I’m kind of enjoying twitter. If you would like to listen to me blather on about nothing at all there, I am elsiemarleyblog. Hey, have a good weekend!
Oh, those bears are so cute!!! Holy moley!
I can’t crochet no matter how hard I try, but these projects of yours make me want to give it a go again!
I love everything about t hese, so much that I can’t be troubled to go fix that typo I just made because I need to go make these. NOW.
love love love.
love these!!!
like your flower very much. beautiful !!
is there a pattern for the bears? they’re so adorable!
Love the flwoer pot holder -just lovely!
Wow, these are gorgeous, love the flower! Bears are really cute :)
I get an F for my facebook usage. My husband gets an A+. I actually updated my status yesterday to let all my friends know that I do not check in EVER so stop expecting me to know what’s going on. If someone I know has a baby I expect a birth announcement… in the mail! Have fun tweeting.
SOOOO cute! terrific job!
I wondered where you went on FB! Sorry it didn’t work out. I have not been a great tweeter at all lately. Those bears really are just the right amount of cute, aren’t they?
Your blue flower is lovely, am really impressed. I still have not learned how to crochet. The bears are very sweet.
oh i want a bear potholder family in my house! :)
