Gah! The horrible wool I have in the house, I am ready to do murder by crochet hook!!!
Although I think I managed to turn ok without shortening the few rows I did manage to complete.

Haha, we are too alike arkonite_babe - as well as making unexpected pyramids, I hate it when yarn splits too! Grrr.

Hmm, I'm having awful trouble getting my hands on yarn in second hand shops. And by 'awful trouble' I mean not one of the 10+ I've been in has any!

If you're struggling to find cheap wool I'd recommend this place - browse the clearance pages, they have some real bargains. (I'm nothing to do with them btw, just a very happy customer!).

Eventually got around to crocheting the Valentine Hearts from this site

Really pleased with the outcome and they were so easy to do. Here they are in all their glory over my fireplace.

Yes. It would be much better to explain why you have a crocheted uterus in your bag than let anyone see you carrying a tampon. :rotfl:

These are gorgeous:T:T:T

I'm still very much a novice self taught/teaching crocheter and atm am much more comfortable with knitting. Does anyone know of a pattern for knitted hearts and knitted bunting triangles? I have googled but to no avail.
Sorry to ask a knitty question on a crochet thread.

You've all inspired me again.has anyone seen a nice pattern for a hat with flaps. Next sell a lovely one withcables and twirly flaps like THE scarf . Thinking ofgetting it, working out the pattern and returning it
