I have been thinking about my site and that I have not been out here in a while. I have been focusing on inspiration and a dear friend of mine asked me to take a jaunt up to Mount Rushmore and onto The Brown Sheep Company. So I have been as Rita said T-Raveling. As I took my crocheting along and crocheted while she drove. I was working on "suprise" a non-felted creation. I had a dress that the skirting came apart at the seams after each washing so I cut the skirt away from the top and crocheted a new skirt on it. It is made from a Chardony colored cone cotton. It was crocheted with three different sized hooks. I first I took black Cebelia and wet through the bottom of the shirt with a steele hook. Then took my favorite double ended (different sizes on each end) Japanese hook; size 7 and 8 and did the skirting. Working in size 7 until just below the hip area and the size 8 for the rest. Just skimming below my knees. I did accomplish all but two inches before I returned and have since finished it. I can not wait to wear it. I was going to wear it at a meeting I attended but realized at the last minute that I did not have the correct color of shoes to wear. Oh well I have lots of places to wear it later on. P.S. I will get pictures of it and post even though it is not felted.
