Honestly, is there no end to the yarn stash that appears to be growing by the minute in my spare room closet. Even though some of the original projects now elude me I'll continue my quest to use up all of the yarn that I have acquired. Here is another headband made with a skein of (pre-grandson) pink yarn that I bought. This headband is crocheted. It has been a while since I've done any crocheting. It isn't hard; I guess I just prefer knitting. My grandmother taught me how to crochet when I was young. She always crocheted such beautiful things. She even crocheted a gorgeous black and white wool coat to wear to my sister Cheryl's November 14th 1970 wedding. I wish I had a picture of my grandmother wearing it but I don't. I do however have the coat (Of course I saved it, that's the reason I'm in the mess I am in, I can't let go of the past. I wonder what Dr. Phil would have to say about that? hmmm....) Anyway she was an amazing woman.
Enjoy your weekend!
53 degrees....wow not bad for January 12th right?
Hopefully we'll go all the way to Spring with this kind of weather.The open weave knit is really beautiful. There is a velvet ribbon trim with silk buttons. |
The picture doesn't do it justice. The round neckline and 1970's modern for the day flair coat. |
