Sc'yooos My Mess...

Look...I have been perusing blogs all day and I am NOT happy with how mines looks. There. I said it...so if you see some oddness going on, now you know why!

Of course it would make TOO much sense to just ask the oodles of creative folks I have access to via Etsy for some advice. I love trying to figure things out on my own (but I would NOT turn down any offers to help or some tips...thanks in advance, lol.)

...Back to the beat

So, nearly a year ago one of my students did something that my mother didn't have the patience to do: teach me how to crochet. In doing so, a monster was created. I had little granny square patches all over the place as I experimented with color combinations. I even made granny square earrings (see my Etsy shop and my main site). Then, through gaining a small collection of books and pamphlets, I learned how to do different squares, even hats!1. first hat finished EVER 2. first hat w/brim...it looks better on a bigger head (from Get Your Crochet On by Afiya Ibomu)

Naturaly I would start doing some crochet bags...They are a bit time consuming, but gratifying nonetheless...

I love how this came out...I still need to put a lining in it.

I was making this for a "Black, White + another color" creative challenge, but never finished.

Some works in progress...
