Critter Hat

This is my great nephew Jacob.He is six months old.

I made him a critter hat.  It is the same as the cat hats but with round ears.

I thought it was cute.

And he was the perfect model.
I am making a brown one with blue accents right now.  It will be cuter than the one before.
If you can make a hat, you can make one of these.
I would make a tutorial but it would only leave you confused.  Maybe I can find a friend who speaks crochet and she can interpret.   I will work on it..

Bring on the pumpkin patch!

So one of my best friend's daughter is having her birthday at the local pumpkin patch.  It is soon and I am running out of time to come up with something fabulous.  Another one of my friends who has quite the talent with yarn made these adorable hats.  I was inspired to try my hand at this one.  So with no delays, here is my beautiful daughter modeling my newest hat creation.    The Pumpkin Skulley

Random Crochet Hats

I've made a few more hats.....I call them crochet but can I really crochet?  The truth is no, I don't think I can.  I don't understand the lingo and I can't read a pattern.  What I can do is make circles.  Not even sure how I accomplish that.  But I got it down to an art. :)  I have even gotten tricky with what kind of circles and different yarn and larger hooks.  But make no mistake I still have no idea what exactly I am doing.  I make circles plan and simple.  I hope you like my circles turned hats.  They are fun to make, and I don't keep track of what I'm doing so they are done rather quickly.
 So without further ado I introduce my new hats.
  The mouse cap, the funky skully and the fuzzy beret.

Getting prettier by the day

The weather has been sooooo beautiful lately I can't stop creating things. So I am going blog wild!! hahahha

A few weeks ago I found some round vases for fifty cents a piece. Loved the shape, not so much the color. Felt really dated. So I crocheted around them with some giant hooks and bright green yarn. Much better, at least I think so. Add a little bit of flowers from the garden and bam instant pretty.



Still making my cheap deck pretty.


Hung up the dollar store lanterns in the tree (check out my older posts for tutorial) for more color.
I also have redone another old file cabinet with a different purpose this time. That post will be coming soon. The round orb in the bottom of the picture is light globe I found at the ReStore for a few dollars. It reminds me of a giant bubble. I wish I could find more.
Well have a great day and happy creating.
