Not at all! We are not old (not in our heads and some of us not even in age). We are not crotchety, but we are crochet-y.
Welcome to Crochet Club. This takes place on the first Saturday morning of every month at my favourite shop, A Good Yarn, the fabbest knitting shop in the world. I vaguely supervise the proceedings, helping where I can and learning new stuff in the process.
One of our ladies brought her lovely 15 yr old granddaughter to learn the art, opening her up to a world of creating her own unique fashion accessories. In the foreground you can see Dawn's pile of crocheted squares for her blanket. They are taken from this book, which is a must for all crocheters of cushions and throws.

Coffee, cake and chat - the three wonderful "C's"
Samples and a happy sheep or two. How I wish I'd made that glorious throw!
I did make this fun cardi for The Girl Genius, though, using up all my leftover bits of yarn. It's certainly one of a kind.
Don't forget the fourth wonderful 'C' - crochet of course!
ReplyDeleteI love the cardi for The Girl Genius.
The club looks like fun! And I love the little crochet card - fab x
ReplyDeleteSorry meant to say cardi - not card :)
ReplyDeleteI think I am going to have to come and play. I really want to get better with my crochet this year and as for that blanket on the chair.....every week I think maybe it would slip in my bag and no-one would miss it ;)
