Ode To Crochet

I just have to give thanks to Annies Attic for providing an extensive video tutorial on crochet methods. If you interested, click on Stitching Help...you can get lost among the clips;) So far I’ve seemed the sides and sleeves. Last bit to do is the boarder edging. Not difficult at all, once you understand what your doing. The next showing will be of me wearing it...hoping for the perfect photo-weather, which is totally possible with record highs in Chicago...gosh it’s almost 74 degrees today!!



Does anyone else find it odd, to see ice skaters in this weather?

I will show you a pic of my current socks. I finally got these toes on the needles after many repeats and start-overs. Yarn is keep up pretty well too, considering the abuse I put it thru.



Now, I just have to figure a lace pattern to work in a 30/60 stitch repeat. I may perhaps come up with my own design...oh, if you want to see some awesome sock designs Cookie A. has her own collection of socks patterns...quite unique.
