Flower Vines

Here’s just one of the projects in one of the crochet bags that I drag around with me everywhere. It’s call “Flower Vines.” It will make a lovely afghan…for someone.  Haven’t figured that part out yet.

Maybe me.

Crochet OCD

100 Happy Days #29

I have so many different crochet projects in the works that sincerely, I don’t even know what to post first. The thing is, I need lots of different things going on to suite the circumstances. For instance, I need something small and easy to take to the kids soccer games. I can do a bigger project with complicated instructions if I’ll be spending a few hours alone, uninterrupted. A big bulky, repetitive thing–like an afghan can sit beside me while I watch tv. And lastly, if it’s a project with lots of little pieces that need to be spread out and kept track of–well, that stays in my room where I can lay it out on the bed. See? There is actually order in my bazillion different bags, even if it seems like I need to settle down to focusing on one thing at a time.

Yeah. Ain’t gonna happen.

But do stay tuned. Next project in the ocd pile coming up soon.

It’s quite possible that in one teeny, tiny, highly selective, perfectly joyful area of my life, I might…just…almost…be considered…

a hoarder.

And no, thank you– I don’t want help.

Stained Glass

I know, I know…I’m in the middle of the other project…about a million “other projects” if the truth were known. But it felt lovely to pack up the pieces of the Stained Glass afghan to work on while I was visiting my far away boy and his wife. It is, after all, for them. So they didn’t think I’d forgotten to do it altogether, I brought the evidence, and worked on it for hours and hours. When does anybody ever get to do that? It was pure heaven, I tell you.

It made me calm and peaceful…

and oh, so happy.

Working on a new project that’s turning out quite a bit better than even I anticipated. Any guesses as to what this is going to be?

I’ll give you a hint: I made one a few months ago, but I haven’t made one in years.

How’s that for a riddle?

I’ll show you the answer soon.

In the meantime, I have some crocheting to do…

and it’s making me very happy.
