So I’m still battling the virus that is trying to take me down. Or should I say viruses as I had the stomach flu, now I have a head cold. So gross. This week’s sicky craft is a charming little crochet tote bag using a mix of Lily Sugar n’ Cream yarns. The yarn was left over from our tawashi madness. I’m not a huge fan of cotton yarn like Mary is so I decided to use it up, knowing I’d never really use it if I didn’t design a craft specifically for it. I really like how the Fresh color palette emerged out of the scrap yarn, it just worked out that way. The tote was a total experiment, I had no design in mind… again I just wanted to crochet. Mary and I are complete dorks if you haven’t figured it out yet, so when I showed Mary the finished project I was compelled to put it on my head to show its various uses. Blame it on the cold medicine… okay I’d do it if I wasn’t drugged out of my gourd, I admit it. What resulted from the hat show was a gigglefest, tears and the amusing photos below. Not to sound crazy but it does make a cute hat!
LOL!!! I’m going to have to say the bag gets my vote! You get well soon, sicky craft girl!
Usually it is a dorkiness tie, but you are definitely in the lead here. You almost have patented vacant baby face in the bottom right photo.
What is up with the oompa loompa color? I need to get a better monitor since designing on a laptop is not good for color correction. I’ll be fixing that tonight. MAN I look gross…
Very ingenious and imaginative!
