ok...so i threw it at the wall.


ok.
so i stopped going to crochet class

kind of because

the woman scared me a little

and kind of because it felt

futile...

so i tried to figure it out

on my own

from what i had learned

and books on hand

and yeah,

i did throw it at the wall

once.


but then it worked.

its a little whatever in places,

a little loose cannon and wacky

but hey.

whatever.




i have been
working on cards
either for our own use
or to try to sell
at a booth this summer
that i was thinking about...


and that's what i have been doing.

you?

Hi: I found your post from Boho Girl and think your cards are so cool. I watercolor greeting cards, and mine seem so drab when I see your vibrant colors. I need to step up my colors.
Thanks for sharing your talent and I agree, the monkey is cute too.

gotta love a bit of cut and paste! Loving the robot and I'm with you on the granny square- whatever. Best way to approach crochet I always say...

I remember your post about the woman teaching you to crochet. She did sound a bit intimidating. What I remember about learning to crochet is that it takes practice, practice, practice. You'll get it. The card looks good too.

good that you left the woman that made you uncomfortable and it looks like you've figured it out for yourself which always feels good. i love the cards, especially the vibrant orange one, a new favorite color these days.
