Greetings All:
Today was a beautiful day in Kansas City, it is about 70 degrees and I decided to sit with the grandbaby out on the porch and just crochet a little and watch her play. I have been able to learn a little more about blogging and have been trying to start posting more updates on my Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/NettesCrochetCorner). It has been really relaxing for me and I know my grandbaby enjoyed herself, even though she had to just sit there and watch everyone play since I can't go off the porch. I found several knitting and crochet blogs that I absolutely love and I pray that I can reach their level one day soon. My first blog that has many items that I would love to make is Attic24 (http://attic24.typepad.com/) she uses such beautiful bright spring colors that just uplift your spirit when you see all the beautiful projects she has completed. Another blog that I discovered is Cre8tive Crochet (http://www.cre8tioncrochet.com/) this blog has a lot of fashionable patterns that I love and this pattern the bulky striped cowl (http://www.cre8tioncrochet.com/2013/06/bulky-striped-cowl/) inspired my latest project I am working on. Well, I started this project but I am still working on the Knit1-2-3 checks and garter blanket it is taking forever so I had to sit it down and start on something that I could finish a little faster. Using the idea from the bulky stripped cowl (J hook and Red heart soft yarn) I am making a shawl by extending the foundation double crochet to 90 stitches and then double crocheting in the front post of each row to form a ribbed look. Here is a picture of the project I started I hope it turns out ok, maybe this will be a good pattern for me to start with. God’s Peace be with you!
