Good Morning

Good morning everyone,

Busy weekend this weekend!  We went to my sons school fair yesterday. 

Just trying to keep up on my facebook group and see if we can get some more new members.  fingers crossed we get to 800 soon and then i can post the pattern for the mouse hat with bow. 

I'm going to start making a bag for a friends child today, I'll post pictures and a link to the pattern once I've finished it.

I donated some of my crochet things to the school fair.  I don't know how well they did but I'm hoping they sold.  I am toying with the idea of making a load of hats etc and maybe doing a craft fair later on in the year.  At the moment I am concentrating on baby\child hats as they are quick and fun to make.  Think I'll make up a pattern for a rabbit hat next.

Anyway better try and get some more facebook group members.

Hope you have a good day.

Good Morning

Good morning everyone,

I'm hopefully going to have some headbands finished to show you today.  I started them yesterday but then got the shakes.  It's very hard to crochet when your hands are shaking :-)
I've used free patterns so I'll add the links as well.  Fingers crossed my hands hold out today.

My facebook group is going really well 757 members already.  I just can't believe it! I only started the group 21st April 2011.  It's a fantastic group because we have so many people all over the world joining together with crochet.

Once you have finished you are left with a rectangle and you just need to sew up the side & bottom edge.
