Crocheting is good for you!

I love, love to crochet and freely admit that I am addicted to it.  I simply have to be crocheting and I crochet everyday.  Just what is it about crochet that has me so in its thrall?  I know I am not the only one and it isn't just crochet either.  It can be knitting, beading, cross stitch, drawing, painting or, you know, it can be almost anything you are passionate about.

So, I started to investigate.  I love a good search on Bing or Google.

Well, darn darn darn!  

I hate my laptop's keyboard!!!  I really do!  I had 3 links going on and pfffftt!! just like that they were gone.  Oh, I could tear my hair out.  Or throw out my laptop.  But, I won't do either.  (I'd like to, seriously)

Now, I feel like giving up and just forgetting the whole thing. But, here is what I will do.  I am going to post my Bing search so I won't forget about it.

Crochet as Meditation

Yeah, so now I am out of the mood and my birds are awake clamoring to be uncovered and fed and left out of the cage.  Can't get anything done with Chili, the baby.  He is like having a toddler in the house.  He is 3 months old and gets into everything like a two year old would.  I am not kidding.

Plarn Purse

 My grand daughter requested a purse made from Walmart bags and so I made one.  For some reason my grand children think it is cool I can make things from plastic bags, and it is cool.  It is better than throwing them away and I get to feel good about doing something good for the enviornment.

New hat for grand daughter

The sequins in this yarn doesn't really show up in this picture, but it is just too cute.  The yarn was Yarn Bee Enchantress, color Peony, which I found at Hobby Lobby marked down.  I will definitely make more things with sequined yarn.  I love the look of it.  I also made a pair of fingerless gloves with this yarn which I don't have a picture of just yet.

My camera is on its last legs and has been taking awful pictures.  I don't know if I can make any adjustments to it or not.  My phone camera takes better pics than my camera.

My grand daughter loved the hat.
