Knitting, Sewing and Crocheting, Oh My!

Crocheting!?!?! Yes I do crochet. When my Mommy taught me how to knit and crochet at 5, crocheting stuck while I once and a while knitted. It stayed this way until about 2.5 years ago when knitting and crocheting switched places. Well my hooks have been calling since I see M (she is the co worker I taught to knit and crochet - she like crochet better and cane crochet a storm now) almost everyday crocheting. So I dug out my hook last night and made a wash cloth today.

Just simple single crochet but it was really quick and since I have a ton of Sugar 'n' Cream cotton I think I will be making more of these.

Knitting, yes I still do knit. =) Here is Bellatrix.

Yes I shorten the leg. I like my socks short.

Clue 1 of Mystic Light is done!!!

Look lumpy lace picture on a short needle. I am loving how it is coming out (trust me it will be beautiful)

Secret knitting - nothing more can be said but I am almost halfway done

A little sewing. I lined a bag that has been waiting for it's lining for about a year

Hopefully it will not take a year to sew on the handles.

I also sewed the pillow together, but couldn't finish it since well I have no more stuffing.

Wow that yarn is so fine. I am a spinning virgin, so I don't have a clue. What would you guess the weight is? Looks great!

Very, very nice spinning. Your spinning buddy looks very content. And have fun with the crochet- that dishcloth looks nice.
