Crochet has really got hold of you, hasn't it

? You're doing great!

It has, indeed, Mabel! I don't know where it came from - I just woke up on Wednesday and thought it was high time I tried it - LOL!

Anyway, I spotted a video tute for a crocheted flower and couldn't resist giving it a go, so here it is:

Now I'm going ot go back to stitching my four seasons band sampler bookmark!

You are picking up the crochet quickly. Look forward to seeing what goodies you end up making !!

As a quick experiment, I decided to crochet the two flowers together, just to see how I would do that. I thin kit worked quite well.

And then during the Eurovision Song Contest, I worked on my four seasons blackwork band sampler bookmark and made quite a bit of progress:

I love the bookmark! It's a great idea. I should do something like that, as I'm an avid reader (more than a stitcher even, LOL).

Beautiful work on your sampler

Your doing well on crocheting, too. Reminds me that I should get out my hook again, too.

Your crocheting is coming on beautifully! It's very neat and tidy - just like your stitching really

Those looks great! I think they would look really cute on a headband or clip

I like the double flower!

I crocheted a 3-layer flower this morning and I've started working on a hairband in triple crochet so that the flower (and perhaps a couple of single ones as well) can be attached to it - probably with buttons...

kell · Post by **kell** » Mon May 16, 2011 10:21 pm

I did it! Finished not 5 minutes ago - one triple crochet hairband with three flowers (2 single layer and 1 triple layer). Am well chuffed with myself.

Nachstenliebe · Post by **Nachstenliebe** » Tue May 17, 2011 1:55 pm

I love it!! I am even more inspired to try crochet now

It looks really good! How is it "attached" to the head? (I ask because hair bands always seem to "peel off" my head

)
