Polymer Clay Crochet Hooks

I crochet a lot and recently it has been hurting my hands. I took a break from it for a few months and I've just jumped back into it full force. Andddd I'm rusty. My wrists are killing me. I was thinking about doing something with polymer clay to make a handle on the hooks. Polymer clay is really fun to work with. Its the adult version of play dough. Once you make what you want, you have to bake it. Once its baked its super hard and sturdy.

There are sooo many pretty colors to choose from.

 Plus look at all the cute things you can make.

So my next project will be to make polymer clay handles for some of my more used hooks.

Maybe not this fancy. Or this cute.

I could dream right? Practice makes perfect.

Crochet Bowtie's

Had a moment of inspiration today! I don't quite know what struck me to think about bowtie's. I'm quirky like that. But then I though I could crochet a bowtie. So I did just that. I pulled out some gray yarn, grabbed my trusty crochet hook and went to it. 15 minutes later I was finished. I didn't follow a pattern, just went with it. The best part of it all, is that if Brayden's neck gets wider when he ages, the neck strap can be removed easy peasy and I can make a larger one :) I'm thinking about selling them. I'd love your input! I could do so many colors!

see the cute little red button? I'm finally putting my collection to use!

 

I simply asked for a smile and got this.

I think $3.50 a piece sounds appropriate!

All Things Arrows.

It's been slowly creepin' up on me. I've seen them everywhere lately. Told myself whats so great about em? Well..... it didn't take long. Little by little I have been appreciating them more. You wondering what I've been obsessing over for the last few months? ARROWS PEOPLE. >>>------------------>

They are everywhere! And I am not a least bit annoyed. Arrows add a bit of edge. Once known as something manly and scary, for some reason is now cool and stylish. Our generation is wack. Chevron is sorta like arrows. But different. Can't wait to finish my gray and yellow blanket I've been working on forever. Even gray and yellow are popular go-to colors. Have a good tuesday!
