Not My Crochet

By -
My very talented and creative locker partner , nurse pal, Anne crocheted her wrap.
She didn't use a pattern.
She saw a similar wrap on Ravelry and guessed.
 
 Specifics:
Echo Red Heart Unforgettable Wool.
She likes tertiary colors. 
I learned this means, three colors blended for a new color. 

She did say the yarn is unforgiveable if you have to unravel.
It likes itself so much it tangles up and won't let go.

Good thing Anne can punt. 
I was really impressed with her wrap. 
Her new venture is pottery!
I'm sure she will succeed. 

Has anyone you've visited for the Holidays worn something amazing they created?

Nice! That's what I love about crochet. You can start and stop anywhere and don't have to worry too much about puckering.

Oh wow is that beautiful!! And to think she did it without a pattern - people tend to amaze me - because I know I couldn't do it!!

Oh....that is a beauty!!!! Only my old knit night pals ever made things that were creative. I really admire people who can make up patterns. I'm lost without one.

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
