Me? My Own Blog? Shut The Front Door!

  Well, Hiya Every One!




Here goes my new blog! This is so exciting! I have a million and one great ideas, patterns, and projects that I cant wait to share with the world! Today has been rather fruitful for me. I finished whipping up a scarf using simple blhdc flhdc variation for my Daddy who just recently sent me a new set of amazing hooks. Now that I have a more varied set (B2 through N) I'm really enjoying myself with a million types of materials. From sparkly thread to super chunky yarn.

                I'm still behind on writing this new pattern I had an idea for. Since I cant get my head around it, I'm taking my head out of it and shelving it for the time being. Frustrating, but necessary sometimes. I still have the appliques for my shelved pattern floating around in my mind, so perhaps I can still write those out with more success.

However, I have opened a whole new can of worms in the form of  bobble stitches! Check out the pattern http://colourinasimplelife.blogspot.com/2012/06/granny-bobble-spiral.html! It is very simple, but I do have one recommendation. Keep your materials organized! You work with four colors simultaneously and it's very easy to get snarled up. Avoid the whole flim flam and hook hurling and pull your yarn from the center of the skeins and let the skeins stand upright in a box or bag and check it often for tangles. My daughter got a hoot out of her silly Mommy because she saw me with this bobble granny square atop my head and untangling skeins with both hands. It made sense at the time though!

Well, I hope every one enjoys my blog as much as I enjoy writing and I hope every one enjoys this great pattern I rooted out.Have an amazing day and happy hooking to you all!
