I made a few things for a friends fair to raise money for meningitis. Sorry about the picture being small, i cant do the image thing for the bigger picture, here's what i made;



The images show bigger on my blog, but for some reason as theres a slide show i cant pop it in a post here.

Hiya

So, hows all the crocheting going???

I havent been doing much but i am planning on another teddy bear for one of the mums up the school who is due to give birth any day now! might put a bell in the belly so it jingles! will post a pic when i get round to doing it.

I have, however, done an outfit for a sock monkey. Actually i do alot of crocheting for sock monkeys as knitting hurts my fingers. But this one has a head band with a flower thing on it. I am quite impressed with myself. Here she is.

my latest is an alien. i made it up as i went along as my daughter wanted one and now have to make another 2 for the boys!

l must say some of the pieces are wonderful and inspirational. l can only do a very simple pattern for a small blanket and get never get the middle started correctly which delays me from getting started.as suggested l am going to try to follow the you tube tutorials. l have taken a small piece of crotchet to a hospital appointment and in no time a kind lady came and sat next to me and tried to show me how to start off. when l was at a different appointment a lady sat and made a lovely hat from start to finish whilst waiting she said she makes them for charity. lt is very relaxing once you get going as other posters have said. good luck to all.

Hiya all

After doing the small pink crochet alien I decided to make a larger one for my sons (one each as they both want one). I have finally finished one of them. Am having problems uploading at the moment so if anyone is interested I have put it on my blog.
