It looks black, but it's actually navy. |
And in case you missed my post, I’m making these to give
away at RAGT and maybe RomCon. At the rate I’m going, I’ll be lucky to have two
completed by June.
Or maybe not. I’m pretty much done setting up QuickBooks for
my treasurer duties (it’s going pretty smoothly—and easily), so that will leave
my weekends free to crochet. Next Sunday Hubby and I will be at B-dubs (that’s
Buffalo Wild Wings for those of you who don’t have one of those restaurants in
your area) for the Super Bowl party (we snagged tickets), which means I’ll have
lots of time to crochet (we figure we’ll have to get there early to get a
comfortable seat). In the past I’ve taken my laptop, but this year I’ll just
take my crochet projects. I bet I get lots done, too.
At least, I HOPE so! But just in case, I’m also crocheting a
scarf. If it goes faster, I’ll do more of those. But I do love those
potholders. They’re so thick, you don’t burn your fingers with those suckers!
And I’ve tested them.
No, not that one. I’m not giving away a used potholder.
I’ve got some good news… The cover to A Vampire Wedding is just about finished and it looks sooooo
cooooool! If you’d like to see it a week before I show it to everyone (here and
Facebook), you’ll need to be a subscriber to my newsletter. I want to give my
subscribers first looksee. It’s only fair. They put up with my newsletters! J
So, if you aren’t a subscriber and want to be, there’s a
sign up form on the side bar. If you don’t see it (or you’re too lazy to look),
here’s a link for you: http://eepurl.com/bCN0Oz.
Don’t say I didn’t make it easy for you!
So… Tomorrow is Ground Hog’s Day. Wow! Already! With the way
the temperature was yesterday (in the 50s!!!—I swear it felt like spring out
there), I’m thinking that little guy is gonna see his shadow. How does that
make you feel? Happy? Sad? Indifferent? It’s certainly been a strange winter,
though. At least it has HERE. You see, the snow missed us. Whew!
Have a great Monday!

A friend once taught me to crochet, but it's been so long I've probably forgotten.
Love the pot holder. I'll bet it'll be a big hit.
Maria - I bet a refresher would remind you how to crochet. I crocheted as a child. Years later I wanted to make an afghan, but couldn't remember how to start it for the life of me! But I asked the clerk at the yarn store and she showed me. It all came back!!! :)
That potholder is so cute!
My grandma used to crochet all the time. Made some gorgeous afghans, doilies, hats, sweaters, you name it. I tried but just don't have the patience. Yet somehow I can write a whole book...
Have fun at the Superbowl party!
Jennette - It's not the patience I need so much as nimble fingers. I can't do too much crocheting at one time anymore. I used to crochet doilies. No more. Ouch! My eyesight can't handle it, either. :)
I'd be shocked if they didn't call for an early spring. Meteorologists have been calling for it since last fall!
Jeff - Yeah, but we're talking a GROUNDHOG here! :)
